I recently joined the 5 am Club. This has been one of the best Life Changing decisions I have made. Thank you Milton Kamwendo for inspiring me.
I want to take this opportunity to share a quote from Wilbur Wright " What one man can do himself directly is but little. if however he can stir up ten others to take up the task he has accomplished much"
I wanted to share a recent #gbr episode featuring The Prince & Princess of Wales and The Princess Royal chatting about rugby because as the conversation flows the language used to describe this sport, you begin to uncover striking similarities with businesses that are often operating either on a shoestring budget, propelled by private equity, SMEs, and or B Corps.
These entities face a daily battleground, challenging multinational giants, but it is the team spirit and drive to press on no matter how hard or bad the situation, you will cross over the line and if your lucky bag a few "bonus points" along the way. 🤜#irfu
✅ Making the hard yards - equates to senior leadership making tough decisions to keep the business afloat, decisions that most colleagues may not even be aware of.
✅ Constant innovation & preparation -mirrors the diligence and agility required to bring products to market swiftly.
✅ Continuous improvement - underlines the need to refine and enhance operations continually.
✅ Fronting up - signifies unwavering belief in your brand and team.
✅ Digging deep - is akin to the final push as a critical milestone approaches.
✅ Team morale - boosting colleagues' spirits, no matter how dire the situation.
✅ Community - reflects the commitment to giving back and making a positive impact in your local area.
✅ Effective communication - MOST IMPORTANTLY is the thread that ties it all together, just as it does in rugby and business alike.
These parallels show that in the world of business, like in rugby, it's the values, determination, and teamwork that often make the difference between success and struggle.
So take a step back and take the time to genuinely understand and appreciate each of their colleagues to cultivate a robust organisational culture. In doing so, you'll pinpoint individuals:
✔️ Who consistently go above and beyond for the organization.
✔️ Possessing well-rounded characters, readily capable of boosting team morale when the situation demands it.
✔️ Who naturally embodies the leadership your team needs to thrive.
"To the brave and faithful, nothing is impossible." -

What an opportunity for our boys to showcase their talent at the Grey PE tournament as part of their preparations for the tour to England in October. We continue to dream the impossible dreams ❤️🏉
Recognizing members of the curling club for annual awards was a straight-forward process - usually.
When someone I fully expected to be honoured wasn't on the short-list, I surprised myself at how compelled I was to speak for her and break from the process.
What I realized in doing so was that sponsorship isn't just about supporting someone, but doing so when it feels intensely risky.
I'm including an exercise you can do this week.

The cheers are fading, and the dust is settling, but the spirit of the Vinsys Premier League still thrives!
As an avid cricket fan myself, I know the magic this sport holds. But the VPL's true power lies beyond the boundaries of the pitch.
It's about forging unexpected bonds, igniting hidden talents, and fostering a genuine camaraderie.
We saw colleagues break down departmental barriers, cheer loudly for teammates, and discover strengths they never knew they had.
These bonds don't fade with the final whistle.
They translate into improved communication, collaboration, and trust back in the office. Teams that play together work together, and that's the real win here. The VPL wasn't just another annual sporting event but an investment in our people, our greatest asset.
So, let's raise a bat to the VPL and everything it signifies:
The power of shared passion.
The magic of teamwork.
The unwavering spirit of a company that puts people first.
Onwards, Vinsys team, onwards!

Last week at a luncheon, a few old mates (Denis Pagan, Dr Harry Unglik & Wayne Carey) of the North Melbourne FC 1996 Premiership Team gathered to celebrate Corey McKernan’s 50th birthday. The occasion turned into a journey through time, revisiting football victories, pivotal moments, fun times, resilience and the development of life principles forged over the past 25 years.
Conversations shifted to nostalgic reflections as memories flowed, victories were recounted and the challenging times that have been life shaping. The parallels between past sporting principles and present-day realities became evident.
The key messages that resonated were the importance of principles like accountability, discipline, hard work, belonging and the need for a vision. All proving to be pivotal for their success at the time. The notion of vision emerged as a significant aspect of this success and a driving force in sport, business and life.
The celebration transformed into a living testament to the enduring nature of these principles, living philosophies which shaped their journeys. Corey's 50th became a tribute to the wisdom that binds them, a celebration of timeless lessons learned on the field and translating into life. #highperformance#teamsuccess#teamculture
Scottie Scheffler is really good at golfing. And as he wakes up to see another green jacket hanging in his closet, Caitlin Clark wakes up for the last time not being the #1 pick in the WNBA draft.
And we have all woken up to the opportunity to recognize a Nice Guy or Gal.
Every Friday, I’ll share nominations for people who have been identified as nice guys (and gals).
If you want to nominate someone, just shoot me a private message by 5:00 EST on Thursday.
There are only 3 requirements:
1) you have to be connected to the person you nominate
2) you can only nominate one person per week
3) you can’t nominate yourself 😀
If you want to provide a brief reason for your selection, that’s great, but it’s not a requirement.
Let’s recognize people who make a difference simply by being nice.
Have a great day, everyone.

Our Hole in One's are NEVER luck, do you agree? We try everytime to get em 👍🤘
Life is like a giant golf course, with each of us trying to sink that coveted hole-in-one. But getting that perfect shot isn't just luck or happenstance. It takes carefully choosing our golfing partners - our tribe - who will help line up the shot and give us the right club at the right moment. Surrounding ourselves with people who believe in us and want to see us succeed is key. Because at the end of the day, a hole-in-one is earned through commitment, focused effort, and having the right team to support our swing.
So choose your tribe wisely. And when you or someone in your tribe makes that coveted hole-in-one, celebrate it together! Because our achievements are so often borne out of the community we keep. Here's to each of us finding the tribe that helps us consistently hit life's holes-in-one. #teamwork#successmindset#winningtogether
