Every entrepreneur wants to win, grow, learn, and be profitable. In my years as a small business coach and keynote speaker for entrepreneurs, I’ve met and connected with some incredible people. In my conversations with these people, I always look for common themes attributed to their success and consistent patterns of winning. During a phone call a few days ago, a great friend of mine hit the nail on the head.
My friends name is Dave Sanderson. Dave is an international keynote speaker and entrepreneur. Dave was a passenger on the Miracle on the Hudson flight that occurred back in 2009. I met Dave in 2013, when we both were speaking at an Entrepreneur’s Organization event in Atlantic City. Dave has presented his message close to 600 times since 2009, and is a seasoned, inspiring and phenomenal keynote speaker and entrepreneur. What I admire about Dave is his dedication to his craft, as well as his willingness to pour into others pursuing the same craft and profession of public speaking.
During our phone conversation, I asked him how he has been so successful as an entrepreneur and keynote speaker, and what he does to prepare to deliver phenomenal level 10 keynote presentations on a consistent basis.
“Treat every presentation and speech as if it were the Super Bowl,” he said. Put yourself in a position where failing is not an option. Make each presentation shine as if it were the last one you’ll ever give. “Leave everything on the stage.”
To win in business, to win in life and to win as an entrepreneur, every interaction, every deal, every relationship you pour into must be treated like the Super Bowl. Set outcomes, not goals. Super Bowls are not won because a team has a goal to win, rather they set a desired outcome and make it happen. Play like it is the last game you will ever play! To what degree are you playing and doing life, leadership and entreprenurship?
