Mid-week Matinée – Michael Jordan’s “Failures”

baseball-player

Here’s another tool to help morale and productivity.  Yours and that of those you manage.  So that everyone can keep on swinging.

He was mentioned in Quick List:  Famous Fools and Tuesday Matinee:  Famous Fools,  but here’s a video featuring basketball legend, Michael Jordan.  What’s that got to do with baseball?  Nothing really.  Except…oh yeah…

Get the popcorn and gather everyone around.     Before you do that though,   grab a bag of mini (or not so mini) Baby Ruth  bars.  When the movie is over, give each of the viewers a candy bar with the instruction to “keep swinging”!

 

Remember this video down the road – when you might not feel like doing what you need to do to be a  pro!

baby ruthMeanwhile – go enjoy that Baby Ruth and put the extra energy to work swinging for the fences.
