What the hell does Vince Lombardi have to say about advertising? Nothing.
And yet, you have some of his motivational garbage pinned to the wall of your cubicle. You’re not a football player. You can’t will yourself to greatness. If you could do that, you wouldn’t be in sales.
In my office, I have a painting of a castle in Spain, an abstract piece a guy made using spray paint and cardboard, and a framed double-sized Captain America comic. On top of my bookshelf, I have about three-hundred dollars worth of Star Wars memorabilia.
I prefer to figure things out on my own.

If you prefer to figure things out on your own, learn from your mistakes and acknowledge your own achievements, that's good. Independence is competency and competency brings success. But it helps to observe what others do from a reasonable distance and learn from that. No man is an island, and a solitary form of self-delusion can steal a lifetime away. A castle might never see a siege or battle and yet the elements will inevitably cause it to crumble.
Have you been ordering pizzas online via the Dominos website? I ask because these notices from Dominos keep getting sent to my email address, andrew.lankford@gmail.com. If so, please use a different email address.
Best regards, Andrew Lankford
