Living in the sports/startup world is interesting. One minute I'm reading Sports Illustrated making sure I'm up to date on the industry (as well as getting my college basketball fix, GO DAWGS!), the next minute I'm reading some obscure random tech/entrepreneur/vc blog that the majority of Sports Illustrated readers have never heard of.
Luckily for me, the lessons are occasionally the same:
From SI's Feb 2nd Issue (On How LeBron James is, well, scary good):
"Cleveland general manager Danny Ferry attributes the new regimen (weight lifting) to James's national team experience. 'From a corporate sense, it's like those guys spent their summer sharing best practices," says Ferry. 'If they have a meeting in the morning and Kobe Bryan comes in sweaty, LeBron's going to say Holy ...., this guy's already working. That's what it takes."
Maybe it was just the sweat comment, but it reminded me of the Five Smells of a Startup CEO.
(I of course like the sweaty CEO since that's where I live). More than the sweat, it's the idea of 'best practices' of Startup CEOs and how to learn from the successes (and mistakes) of all those who went before you.
I love sports. Startups rock. I'm lucky I get to live in both worlds. I hope you're as excited about the worlds you live in.
I do not doubt that there is anything on earth more beautiful than the woman with her curves and sensuality, but tell this beautiful woman, this is my contribution.
