Incredible Staff Meeting


Yesterday we had an incredible staff training time for our NStar team! Once a month, we have in a great leader to challenge and sharpen our team! We have had great Pastors such as: Brian Bloye, Shawn Lovejoy, Ike Reighard, Ken Williams and Andy Stanley. We have also had great business leaders: Ira Blumenthal (Branding Expert), Chuck Bengochea (CEO of Honeybaked Hams), Dr. Jeff Terrell (President of PSI) and yesterday famed sports psychologist Dr. Jack Llewellyn. Dr. Jack worked most notably with John Smoltz and spent many years in the Braves dugout working with the players on the mental side of the game!! He has worked with corporations and now works with many of the NASCAR drivers.

We learned a ton but I guess the biggest take-away of the day for me was that we play best when we don't relax but when we play on an emotional edge, passionately doing what we love to do!! It is amazing how much our attitude plays into what we do!! I am in the middle of his book right now and it is right on the money!! Great stuff - thanks Dr. Jack for challenging our team!!
