It’s January and we still have not had any snow yet! So, am I stupid enough to believe we won’t get hit?
No, I think we will eventually get hit, and it will hit really hard and long.
Okay; thats that.
What I really want to talk about is being Stupid and Naive when it comes to reaching a business Goal.
I think you need a smart business plan and a good strategy for a business to be successful, and you can’t be Stupid or Naive about who you put in place for operation either. But I think when you work as a team and you set goals; you kinda need to be. Just think back to the Boston Red Sox championship year in 2004. That year they called themselves the “idiots”. They almost had the same roster the year before and they where dubbed the “Cowboys” because individually they where all super stars. So the next year they decided to set a goal and actually work together. They said “ Forget what we individually accomplished in the past, right now we are a team of idiots who just want to hit the ball into open spaces”. And because of that philosophy they started calling themselves the ‘Idiots” of Boston.
I feel that way about my business. I’m Naive enough to believe that Lawn Thumbs can someday become a household name, by giving great customer service, quality work, and super fair prices. I am also Stupid enough to think that me, my business and team can actually deliver on those promises. When it comes to achieving a goal like that, you have to have a team that you can rely on. That also means your team being able to rely on you.
P.S If it doesn’t snow this year does that mean i’m stupid?
