    A very inspirational lesson that I connected with from John O'Leary (@johnoleary.inspires - On Instagram) or his website: https://johnolearyinspires.com/) he shared this post that came from his podcast episode yesterday - find it HERE, where he reminded us: “Today, I invite you to say yes to invitations and interruptions you may not have planned for. Because the real gift we bring for others isn't our resume, achievements, or awards. The real gift is our presence.”  This got me thinking of so many things about me saying YES to more things that will benefit others along with myself. The other part I focused on with this episode was what John mentioned towards the end of the podcast. It's also about us saying NO to those things that distract us, that hold us back, our fears, those negative things around us, etc. To me, that is something that I need to do even more. Let me know how you connect with these things - especially after you listen to John O'Leary's podcast, episode 809. One last thing - PLEASE check out the movie about John's life and the lessons for all of us. Check out “Soul on Fire” when it comes out October 10.  Here is the official trailer for the film.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.

    A few months ago, John Abrams—author of From Founder to Future—joined us to talk about succession strategies and the different ways business owners can share ownership with employees. For his own business, John chose one of the more radical options: he turned his construction firm into a worker cooperative. Perhaps surprisingly, the more he described the co-op model, the more intrigued Jay Goltz became—although, predictably, Jay did retain a degree of skepticism. So we asked John to come back on the podcast to help Jay dig a little deeper: Are co-ops really all about democracy? Does someone on the loading dock get the same vote as the CEO? How do profits get split in the co-op model? How do losses get absorbed? How are loans secured without burdening frontline workers with personal guarantees? And perhaps most important: What can go wrong? In the end, I think surprising even himself, Jay failed to identify any real dealbreakers.Show Notes:Get a free trial of the Morning Report.Learn more about the Cooperative Fund of the Northeast.This is the podcast episode where Jay Goltz talks about how to do a We-SOP.

    If your results are flat, it might be time to look in the mirror. In this episode, Michael breaks down “radical ownership” for GovCon leaders and shows how to fix what's left of the equal sign, and the behaviors that drive outcomes. We unpack common scapegoats like politics, FAR changes, and slow agencies, and replace them with actions that actually move revenue: better BD cadence, smarter keyword strategy, diversification, and process before scale. You'll hear a real-world example of pipeline growth through keyword pivots, why “scale” can multiply chaos, and how questions like “What part of this is on me?” unlock better execution.

    In this empowering episode of Coaching In Session, Michael Rearden takes on the widely accepted but limiting belief of being “good enough.” He exposes how this mindset leads to mediocrity, stagnation, and untapped potential. Michael challenges listeners to rise above societal norms and inherited standards through radical honesty, shifting personal expectations, and consistent growth-driven action.This episode outlines a five-step process designed to disrupt the cycle of complacency and push individuals toward a life of excellence and fulfillment. If you've ever felt like you're settling—or waiting for the “right time” to go all in—this conversation is your wake-up call.Key Takeaways: ✅ Many people unknowingly settle for a “good enough” life ✅ Ownership without growth leads to stagnation ✅ You may inherit your start, but you choose your finish ✅ Radical honesty is a foundation for self-evolution ✅ Raising your standards opens the door to higher potential ✅ Growth requires consistent action, not occasional effort ✅ Who you surround yourself with shapes your mindset ✅ Waiting is just procrastination in disguise ✅ There's no cap on what you can achieve—unless you create it ✅ A life of abundance begins when you stop settlingResources:

    Do you ever tell yourself you're just being “content” or “grateful”—when in reality you're actually settling for less than the life you truly want?In this powerful episode, Greg & Rachel Denning pull back the curtain on how false contentment quietly keeps parents stuck in unhappy routines—and why so many families end up living what they call an unhappy dream.You'll discover why true happiness doesn't come from removing desire, but from pursuing your best desires—and how embracing what we call “divine discontent” is the real catalyst for growth, joy, and lasting fulfillment.Instead of numbing out with distractions or convincing yourself you “should just be grateful,” you'll learn how to: - Raise your standards and stop tolerating mediocrity in your health, marriage, parenting, and personal growth- Recognize the difference between gratitude and complacency—and why confusing the two keeps you stuck- Do the inner work first so you can become the kind of parent and leader your kids want to follow- Pursue challenges instead of avoiding them so you build the strength and confidence you need to thrive -Create a family life you don't need to escape from—one filled with meaning, adventure, and joyIf you're ready to stop settling, face what's really holding you back, and design a life you genuinely love, this episode is your wake-up call.Key Takeaways✅ True happiness comes from pursuit, not from removing desire.✅ Divine discontent is healthy—stop tolerating what harms your life.✅ You teach who you are: do the inner work first, every day.✅ Swap “survive the day” for strategic focus + strategic disengagement.✅ Choose challenge over comfort to stay mentally and emotionally healthy.✅ Progress across six domains (physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, social, financial).✅ If you don't like the outcome, raise your standards—then match them with action.✅ Use the power-tool approach (coaching, systems) to collapse time and results.✨ Memorable Quotes

    It's estimated that up to 1,000 monkeys and apes are owned as pets in Missouri. Despite the challenges, and even dangers, of such ownership, pet primates are legal to own in the state. But most arrive in the U.S. through illegal smuggling operations. Animal advocates share the dark side of the exotic pet trade, why primates don't make good pets, and the effort to end the illegal sale and trafficking of primates at the federal level.

There's simply more high-impact work happening than any one newsletter can cover, even when we publish more than once a day, and I'm grateful Jen brings her readers into this ongoing, practical conversation about building community wealth.This month's livestream circled three powerful themes:* How one statewide “buy local” champion became a policy and procurement force* Why small wind—done right—could be a missing piece in local clean-energy finance* What rural communities keep teaching us about ownership, scale, and “fair exchange” between local economiesBelow I've stitched together the ideas in the most useful order I know: start with place, organize around ownership, and finance work that has a credible path to cash flow and measurable community benefit.Scaling Local: The Kimber Lanning/Local First Arizona PlaybookIf you want a concrete picture of what “going local” looks like at scale, study Local First Arizona and its leader, Kimber Lanning. In our discussion, I highlighted the organization's growth to 65 staff and 2,500 paying members, and the way that capacity translates into actual power: influencing city procurement, training and mentoring entrepreneurs, and generally changing the rules of the game for locally owned businesses. That's not a marketing campaign—that's economic development.From an investor's standpoint, the lesson is straightforward: ecosystem capacity multiplies enterprise capacity. When cities rethink procurement, local firms land contracts. When founders get hands-on mentoring and peer accountability, they grow steadier revenue and become stronger candidates for Reg CF and community note offerings. This is the flywheel we want: policy → pipeline → performance.A second takeaway is strategic humility. Not every community can—or should—copy and paste Arizona's structure. Jen noted that the old “build a nonprofit business alliance” model was financially unsustainable in her small New Hampshire region, even though it succeeded in places like Phoenix. The right structure is local by definition. The goal is to right-size the vehicle so it can actually deliver value where you live.Action moves for builders and funders:* Map the procurement levers you can move in the next 12 months (city, county, anchor institutions).* Stand up a founder services sprint (8–12 weeks) that teaches 5–10 local firms exactly how to win those contracts.* Pre-vet 2–3 entrepreneurs from that sprint for a Reg CF raise; pair with a local “buy from” campaign timed to their working-capital needs.Small Wind, Big Idea: Cluster Effects & Localized Clean EnergyJen brought a fresh perspective from my recent conversation with Dr. Daniel Farb of Flower Turbines. The concept that grabbed both of us: smaller wind turbines can improve each other's performance when thoughtfully clustered—a “1+1>2” effect we don't see with utility-scale wind. That's a meaningful design distinction with financing implications.Why does this matter? Because distributed wind complements rooftop solar in the two places where solar is weakest: at night and on cloudy days. That can reduce storage requirements—still costly and, in many chemistries, environmentally fraught. If we can meet more load in real time with a mixed portfolio (solar + small wind), we make community microgrids both cleaner and cheaper.I also love the place-based finance angle. Flower Turbines' current posture prioritizes local projects; if momentum builds, I expect a pattern we've seen with solar developers: batching geographically defined projects and raising for the bundle—streamlining diligence while preserving neighborhood-level benefits. That's an ideal use case for impact notes and project-level Reg CF offerings with transparent revenue models (PPAs, leases, host-site savings shares).Rural Reality Check: The Tupelo Model, Ownership, and Fair ExchangeJen noted that her most-engaged post since we last met focused on rural communities going local—drawing on Michael Shuman's reminder from the Tupelo model that without local ownership, “economic development” is often just transfer pricing on a map. If a town wins by luring a company from a neighbor, the region doesn't grow; it just rearranges. Ownership, not attraction, is the engine.This is where “impact crowdfunding” shines: it converts resident savings into resident equity and debt, keeping profits and control close to the people who live with the outcomes. Jen's point lands because we still see candidates insisting the path forward is subsidizing outside firms to relocate—a habit that costs money and often steals jobs from another community rather than creating new value. There is another way.We also revisited a beautiful nuance from the days of BALLE (Business Alliance for Local Living Economies): “fair exchange between local economies.” Being pro-local isn't isolationism. It's a commitment to buy locally first, then buy from another community's local businesses when yours doesn't produce the thing you need. That ethic builds inter-local solidarity instead of a zero-sum nationalism. It's an attitude I'd love to see embedded in every regional procurement policy.What We're Building Together: Access + VIP DepthA quick update on SuperCrowd25: yes, there were a couple small glitches, but the event delivered—eighteen hours of programming, every minute available free on the Superpowers for Good site. It's embedded in a YouTube player, so you can speed it up, skip ahead, and go straight to highlights like Michael Shuman's talk or Jen's session. We're also cutting individual clips and—because the SuperCrowdLA recap was a hit—planning a SuperCrowd25 book.On the membership front, our operating philosophy is simple: publish most content free, then offer VIP depth that pays for the mission. We're averaging 8–9 posts a week, with just one reserved for paying Impact Members. Our monthly webinars are open, and the VIP After-Call—including backstage Q&A with speakers at SuperCrowd25—offers that small-group, one-on-one access many of you value. Non-members can drop in for $25 when something catches your eye. That combo keeps the tent big and the lights on.And because Main Street Journal is one of the most thoughtful voices in our space, I encouraged listeners to become paying subscribers there, too. Much of Jen's most valuable work sits behind her paywall—for good reason. If you care about strengthening your town's economic resilience, it's worth it.How These Threads Weave Together (and Why They Matter to Investors)From where I sit, the three themes of this conversation converge on the same thesis:* Local First Arizona shows how ecosystem capacity (policy + procurement + services) turns into investable, revenue-generating opportunities for founders who live where their customers live.* Flower Turbines demonstrates that design choices (clustered small wind) can change the unit economics of clean energy at the site level—exactly where community investors can understand the business model and monitor outcomes.* The Tupelo model reminds us to finance ownership, not attraction. When residents own productive assets, we create compounding returns—financially and civically.That's impact crowdfunding's sweet spot. We're not speculating on abstractions; we're backing understandable enterprises whose success visibly benefits our place. We ask founders to disclose risks and realities. We accept the discipline of regulated raises. We insist on alignment between mission, model, and metrics.Keep the Conversation GoingYou can watch every minute of SuperCrowd25's programming for free, right now, and go straight to the segments that matter most to your work. We'll keep pulling clips and assembling a book-length recap to make the content easier to use. And we'll keep the tent wide—free content for all, depth for those who want VIP access.If you value this conversation, support both communities: become a paying Impact Member here and a Main Street Journal subscriber there. That's how we keep telling the stories that move capital, change policy, and grow ownership—on Main Street, where the impact shows up.P.S. What did this month's conversation spark for you? Reply with a note about a procurement shift you're chasing, a clean-energy site you're sketching, or a rural “shared services” idea you want to test. We'll fold the best examples into upcoming posts—and, with your permission, into the SuperCrowd25 recap project we're assembling now.

    Facing the Storm: Emotional Ownership as a Path to Healing In this episode of the Human Intimacy Podcast, Dr. Kevin Skinner and MaryAnn Michaelis, LCSW, dive into the powerful concept of emotional ownership. They discuss why betrayal often sparks a safety-seeking response—over-monitoring, controlling, or trying to manage a partner's behavior—and why that's a natural trauma reaction but unsustainable long term. Drawing on the buffalo and cow metaphor, they invite listeners to “face the storm” of emotions rather than avoid them. The conversation explores how shifting from blame (“You made me…”) to ownership (“I feel…”) empowers healing, restores boundaries, and opens the door to deeper connection. Whether in the aftermath of sexual betrayal or in everyday relationship struggles, emotional ownership offers a path to move from survival mode to resilience. The episode closes with a reflective question for listeners: Can your partner fix your emotions? Share your thoughts with the team at questions@humanintimacy.com.

You could own equity as a small shareholder where you bought stock. You could also own it as an owner where you started the company.

Episode Highlights: Shop Acquisition and Rapid Payoff: Despite once saying he'd never own a shop again, Chris purchased Firestone of Durango about a year ago, calling it “too good of a deal to pass up.” Planned as a three-year owner-financed purchase, he paid it off in just six months. Profitability and Growth: With a 31% net profit (compared to the industry average of 5–8%), the shop's success reflects the very systems Chris teaches. Advertising and Expansion: Spending roughly $10K per month, Chris follows his mantra: “Advertise for the shop you want to be, not the shop you are.” He prioritizes Local Service Ads (LSAs). Operations and Staffing: Chris rejects the idea of a “technician shortage,” noting great shops attract great people. Coaching in Action: Chris practices what he preaches: action based learning, accountability, and focusing on fundamentals like proper pricing before chasing more customers.

    I had a great start to my day this morning and it wasn't just the coffee! First my reading this morning from the book “Starting Your Day Right” by Joyce Meyer (short daily devotions for every day of the year). Today's reading reminded me about what we reap, we sow. What we put out there into the world, comes back to us - many times over!  Along with the reminder not to grow weary doing good. This worked in perfectly with this “Intention Card Deck” my wife and I got from going to a very early premier of “Soul on Fire” - it's the amazing story of John O'Leary. One that you are going to want to watch. Check the official movie site HERE.  The first card I saw in the deck was this one: “Can you find purpose in your day that is bigger than just your routine tasks? Is it possibly that one of your purposes is to share kindness with all those you interact with each day?”  That got me thinking about all the little interactions throughout a day that I see, that have kindness written all over them - despite what the world shows us on those days. The other side of the card had this direct quote from John O'Leary - “Indifference kills. But purpose breathes life into others, into our work, into our relationships, and into our existence.”  This got me thinking that there are still too many times that I do act indifferent and I need to lean onto my purpose more and more (being an educator, coach, husband, father, son, uncle, nephew, brother, neighbor, friend, an encourager, etc.) Each and every day we can connect with these thoughts - each of those days will be the best they can be.

    Revisiting User Stories: Writing Better User Stories for Successful Projects

    Develpreneur: Become a Better Developer and Entrepreneur

    Play Episode Listen Later Sep 2, 2025 27:48


    In this season of Building Better Developers with AI, hosts Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche revisit a past topic: 'Transform Your Projects: The Ultimate Guide to Effective User Stories.' This episode offers a fresh perspective on how teams can achieve greater success by writing better user stories. The hosts initially tackled this subject in an earlier season, but they return to it because the challenge remains timeless: poorly written user stories continue to derail software projects. This time, they dive deeper into lessons learned, customer-centric approaches, and frameworks that make user stories truly work. Why Writing Better User Stories Still Matters Rob opens with a familiar frustration: sitting in sprint planning and realizing the user stories don't make sense. Vague requirements create confusion, rework, and wasted effort. A user story is not a specification—it's a promise for a conversation that builds shared understanding. By writing better user stories, teams maintain focus on outcomes, rather than implementation. They deliver features that users actually need, instead of technical solutions that fall short. The Philosophy of Writing Better User Stories User stories should always: Stay customer-centric by focusing on what the user wants, not the technical details. Break down work into small, manageable chunks that improve agility and estimation. Emphasize outcomes over implementation, avoiding the trap of data tables and CSS classes too early. Rob illustrates this with the ATM example: “As a customer, I want to withdraw cash so that I can access money in my account.” This keeps the story grounded in the user's experience. The Anatomy of Writing Better User Stories At the core of writing better user stories is a simple formula that makes requirements clear and human: As a [user role] I want [goal] So that [reason] This framework ensures that every story is tied directly to a user's perspective, their needs, and the value they'll receive. However, strong stories extend beyond this sentence structure. Rob and Michael highlight two key frameworks that add depth and clarity: The Three C's – Card, Conversation, and Confirmation, which explain how stories spark dialogue and define “done.” The INVEST Model – Independent, Negotiable, Valuable, Estimable, Small, and Testable- is a checklist that helps teams evaluate whether a story is ready to move forward. Finally, one important reminder: each story should only have one meaning. If a story can be interpreted in multiple ways—or contains “if/then” scenarios—it should be split into smaller, more focused stories. This keeps the backlog clean and avoids confusion later in development. The Three C's of Writing Better User Stories 1. Card The card represents the user story itself. Traditionally, teams would write stories on index cards. Today, tools like Jira, Trello, or Asana take their place. The key is that the card is just a placeholder for a conversation, not the entire requirement. It captures the essence of the story but leaves room for discussion. 2. Conversation The conversation is where the real value happens. Developers, product owners, and stakeholders discuss the story, ask clarifying questions, and uncover details that weren't written down. These discussions ensure that the team shares a common understanding of the user's needs. Without this step, the story risks being too vague or misinterpreted. 3. Confirmation The confirmation defines how the team knows the story is complete. This typically takes the form of acceptance criteria or test cases. Confirmation transforms a story from an idea into a verifiable piece of functionality. It answers the critical question: What does “done” look like? Card captures the idea. Conversation builds the understanding. Confirmation proves the work is complete. The INVEST Model for Writing Better User Stories The INVEST model is a simple but powerful checklist that helps ensure user stories are clear, practical, and actionable. Each letter represents a quality that a strong user story should have. Independent A good user story should stand on its own. That means it can be developed, tested, and delivered without being blocked by another story. Independence reduces dependencies and keeps projects moving smoothly. Negotiable User stories are not contracts carved in stone—they're open to discussion. Teams should be able to negotiate details, scope, and implementation during conversations. This flexibility encourages collaboration and prevents rigid requirements that may not fit real-world needs. Valuable If a story doesn't provide business or user value, it doesn't belong in the backlog. Every story should clearly tie back to outcomes that matter for the end-user or the organization. This keeps the team focused on delivering impact, not just features. Estimable A story should be clear enough that the team can estimate the effort to complete it. If it's too vague or too large, it can't be accurately sized. Estimable stories make sprint planning realistic and help track progress more effectively. Small Stories should be small enough to complete within a single iteration. Large stories, sometimes called “epics,” should be broken down into smaller, more manageable pieces. Small stories are easier to understand, estimate, and test. Testable Finally, a user story must be testable. The team needs to know how to verify it's “done.” This often takes the form of acceptance criteria or test cases, ensuring the functionality can be validated from the user's perspective. The INVEST model keeps stories clear, focused, and actionable. If a story fails any of these tests, refine it before moving forward. Lessons From the Trenches: Writing Better User Stories in Practice Michael highlights a recurring issue: customers often don't fully understand their “why.” They may use outdated paper trails, redundant processes, or even misuse tools they already own. Sometimes developers must reverse-engineer requirements by observing workflows, asking why at each step, and uncovering hidden pain points. Rob adds that trust plays a huge role—stakeholders may initially follow the “official” process, but only reveal their real practices after rapport is established. Avoiding Common Pitfalls Even with good intentions, stories can fall short when they are: Too vague or incomplete. Disconnected from actual business processes. Written without acceptance criteria. Michael stresses that implied requirements are dangerous. Developers should always strive for clearly defined acceptance criteria that leave no room for ambiguity or uncertainty. Practical Tips for Writing Better User Stories The hosts wrap up with actionable guidance for developers: Speak up – Don't code vague tickets without asking questions. Push for the “so that” – The business value matters most. Write acceptance criteria – Define what “done” means. Break down big stories – Smaller, testable stories are easier to validate. Stay user-focused – Keep technical details in subtasks, not in the story. Example: Bad: Add a contact form. Good: As a potential customer, I want to fill out a contact form with my name, email, and message, so that I can get in touch with the company about their services. This richer story sparks the right questions: Which fields are required? Should multiple contact methods be supported? These clarifications lead to solutions that match real needs. Final Thoughts By revisiting this subject, Rob and Michael remind us that user stories are more than backlog items—they are bridges between developers and customers. Writing better user stories keeps teams aligned, prevents rework, and ensures projects deliver meaningful results. Implied requirements are not good requirements. Defined requirements are good requirements. Stay Connected: Join the Developreneur Community We invite you to join our community and share your coding journey with us.

    This episode is such a special one because I am interviewing not only a guy who started business at 16 who has built and sold 5 businesses, including the super successful Dance Studio Owners Association for many millions, but also my best friend.  Clint Salter is such a wonderful and unique human who thinks deeply and cares deeply about contribution and positive impact in the world. I get to talk to him every day so I'm pretty excited to be able to ask him the questions that I know will be helpful to share with so many!  We're talking entrepreneurial dreams, the key to success, whether retirement is all it's cracked up to be, and the meaning of life! :)  Enjoy!  Resources and mentions: Join Her Empire Builder: https://www.herempirebuilder.com/join HEB Events: https://www.herempirebuilder.com/events Eight Wishes by Cass Caldercoy Susie Welsh Values Bridge Test / Becoming You Dance Studio Owners Association (DSOA) “Save the Cat Writes a Novel” by Jessica Brody  Key Topics Covered: Clint's Entrepreneurial Start Began his first business (dance studio) at just 16, motivated more by creativity and curiosity than a desire to be an “entrepreneur.” Emphasizes learning through experimentation, not following the traditional blueprint. Scaling & Selling DSOA The evolution from solopreneur to building a faculty of coaches and a leadership team to make the business less reliant on him personally—a critical step in making it sellable. Transparent account of the emotional and practical realities of the selling process: excitement, responsibility, grief, and the mental toll when exiting something meaningful. The unique challenges of selling a business built on personal brand, and how IP, systems, and cultivating other leaders made the difference. Post-Exit Life & Purpose Adjusting to life after a major exit: the restlessness, the joy of multiple two-hour walks daily, and the challenge of letting go of the hustle mentality. Reflections on achievements, what “having made it” means, and a surprising sense of contentment in a more restful, experimental year. Ownership of embracing randomness: testing new ventures, from doggy daycares to sandwich shops—always seeking that spark of true inspiration. Creativity & the Novel “Eight Wishes” Clint's adventure into fiction writing, the process and discipline behind it, and choosing to publish under a pen name (Cass Caldercoy). Contrasts between creative satisfaction and business-driven projects—plus, the minimalistic launch approach, doing it for the joy rather than league tables and metrics. Wellness, Nervous System, and Redefining Success How prioritizing rest, health, and time away from “noise” (social media, business podcasts) created profound shifts. Honest discussion about money—how it amplifies life, but isn't the end goal; and the necessity (for most) of the hustle phase to achieve financial freedom. The psychological transition from pushing to contentment, and how environment and peer group impact our definition of success. Legacy, Philosophies, and Looking Ahead Thoughts on legacy (and why it's not top-of-mind, especially for those without children). The importance of living well now, not just building for the future. A love letter to his younger self: “You'll be okay.” This episode is a powerful reminder that success isn't just about the hustle or the exit—it's about finding fulfillment, creativity, and peace in the seasons that follow. Clint's story shows us that reinvention is always possible, that rest is just as vital as ambition, and that joy often comes from the unexpected. Whether you're in the thick of building your business or navigating what comes next, this conversation will leave you inspired to define success on your own terms—and to trust that, in the end, you'll be okay too.   Where to find Clint Salter: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/clintsalter/ Where to find Tina: Her Empire Builder: https://www.herempirebuilder.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tina_tower/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@herempirebuilder

    I found this post that really made a connection with me as this is really for everyone. I shared it out there on Twitter / X and I mentioned that this “shoe fits for everyone” as we are all Champions!! It comes from Greg Berge (@gb1121) and the quote is:  "If you really want to be a game changer out there, be a master observer." - Peyton Manning   He goes on to connect that “Champions don't just play the game; they study it. Observation creates anticipation. Anticipation creates advantage.”  No matter what we do in life and who we are doing it with - we want to become Champions.
