@LSMinck @TEKsystems@TEKsystemsATX@uttadnum41 Thanks @LSMinck !! Wouldn't be where we are without Bobby and the impact he makes. Might have been one of his best years, even with all the adversity!
.@pbellott told me this at the start of my career. 12 years later I think about it all the time. Wild to see the famous/hilarious @ElArroyo_ATX sign taking a serious tone, but always loved the quote.
Luckily, this game was right after we wrapped up a Leadership meeting in Bmore. Pickles pub lot looked like a TEK post-meeting rendezvous. Had never heard Camden explode like this before. #OpeningDay
Well deserved assignment change!! Congrats @kthornee. So proud of you! You’re going to be an incredible AM! Watching you grow and raise standards is such a great! #tekpurpose@TEKcareers#luvthegov 🍾🍾🍾
In Jan of 2010 @EugeneRiddle and @migardne provided an opportunity to move down to DC for a sales opening. As a Bmore homer, I was torn...but my dad was encouraging and told me it was a no-brainer. I can’t imagine where my life would be without that chance... #thanks#10YearsAgo
Made a commitment on my bday in Oct. of working out 5-6x/week. Started with a few ‘microhabits’, and now going strong into week 8. The credit for this goes to @JamesClear and his book #AtomicHabits. If you’re looking for a “how” on building better self-discipline, a must read:
What a great way to close out vacation by meeting @JonGordon11 at the Austin airport. Been a huge fan and reader of his work for years. Grateful for the dialogue...got me fired up and ready to take on the rest of 2019!! #StayPositive
When someone has the courage to give you constructive criticism, the worst way to defend yourself is to get defensive.
The only way to prove good intent is to demonstrate it. Thank them for the feedback and ask for concrete advice on how to improve.

Attitude is a choice. You can’t choose what happens to you but you will choose your response to it. The quality of your response will determine your quality of life. No one & no thing can tank your attitude w/o your permission.
Becoming the best version of yourself starts with getting better today, tomorrow, and the next day. Don't worry about "best" or comparing yourself to others... just focus on "getting better" every day.

I am excited to share this 🎥 as part of a series @usaswimming will be releasing.5️⃣years ago the idea of discussing this topic would have paralyzed me in fear. Now I’m proud to talk about this w/the #swimming community! Reflective of progress we’re making!
Being authentic isn't about finding your true self: "Who am I?"
It's about finding your aspirational self: "Who do I want to be?"
Authentic leadership is paying attention to the claims you make about yourself and then striving to become that person.

It's easy to see all of the negatives. It's easy to see what you don't have and what you wish that you had. Be different, learn to see your advantages over your disadvantages. Look at all that you've been gifted with before you start to think that what you have is not enough.
