@stoolpresidente People can say what they want in this thread, but the truth is… this is sad and deeply concerning. Her whole approach, ‘to get a response,’ unfortunately, reflects how the media is burning itself to the ground. A culture change is desperately needed. 😔

@SMB_Attorney 💯 you need disciplined, focused and committed A+ people that put in the invisible work (the work that’s done when no one is watching). IMO, it’s all about ROWE (results only work environment) - I don’t care where or when you work, I just want to see your results.

@buyandsellabiz @mrsharma To a certain degree. Every email is different, but the overall theme is that people that move the needle: take action, are disciplined, are focused and are organized. Those that don’t move the needle - their whole life is about waiting.

@awilkinson Hold the phone. Twitter can shut down. Emails can become obsolete. There are 3 things you need in life: 1. Family 2. In person connections 3. Money so you can invest in the “newest” thing that can capture attention. Good luck with the business.

@kevinolearytv Um! I would say “result”, not “reason”. If people built businesses with the intention of adding value to the world & people’s lives, rather than making money, they’d end up making a lot more money. Just saying. The businesses that think that way make the most & last the longest.
