Cam Newton is getting a lot of attention following Super Bowl 50. Entrepreneurs may learn a lot from the public’s reaction to Cam and his Super Bowl 50 performance. Here are a few things for businesses to think about on this topic.

• When you play in a big game, like the Super Bowl, all eyes are on you.  What game are you playing in?  How many eyes are on you?
• When all eyes are on you, there are high chances your actions, words, and behaviors will be  observed and evaluated. Who is observing and evaluating you?
• Many people will form views and make inferences about you while you are being observed and evaluated. Consider the importance of those viewpoints. What opinions about you are important to you, and where do those opinions come from?
• Social media makes it fast and easy for others to share their opinions with the click of a button.  What is being shared about you?  What are you sharing about others?
• Humans are imperfect and miss the mark daily.  How are you owning yourself daily as a human being?
• It only proves that you are interesting to talk about when millions of people post, share, debate, rant, and rave about you. Do you merit discussion?

As you continue your journey through business and life, consider these things.  Cam Newton, and any other public figure, can teach us all a lot about life and business.
