Don’t underestimate the power of remembering and celebrating your wins… It’s a muscle. The more you practice working on it The more you’ll realize how your days, weeks, months and years and filled with these wins. They are just waiting for you to notice them. Recognizing and remember these wins not only make you feel good, but are crucial to one’s journey in being able to remind yourself of your own capabilities and powers especially when you are not getting the external validation that you expected. What is one win you have this week? Share it below, I would love to hear 👇

This morning, Gian Paul delivered an exceptional presentation at breakfast. As a high school World History teacher, Gian is dedicated to improving the lives of his students. A pivotal moment in his life was when he was invited to speak to the NY Giants. His "All In" speech inspired the team to achieve the unthinkable—winning the 2012 Super Bowl. Here are my key points from today's presentation, paraphrased and summarized: 1. Be all in, in life: Your actions matter, especially when no one is watching. 2. Fame is fleeting; greatness is longevity. 3. Always put others first, but also take care of yourself. 4. If you want God to laugh, tell Him your plans. 5. Don't let your atmosphere/situation affect your attitude. 6. The arrogant look for someone to blame; the humble look for solutions. 7. Embrace three virtues: humility, faithfulness, and gratitude. 8. No excuses—live your best, give your best, 100% all in. Show up. Gian Paul's insights were truly inspiring and a reminder of the principles we should strive to embody in our personal and professional lives.

First: Good apology from Palo Alto Networks and Nikesh Arora. Correctly hits the Regret, Reiteration, Responsibility, Repentance, Repair, and Request (for Forgiveness). If you wanted to quibble, you could assert that in Reiteration, harm acknowledgement is implied and not asserted, and in Request, Forgiveness is assumed and not requested; but as corporate apologies go, this is above and beyond what you generally see. Second: This is not isolated, I think. We eliminated booth babes at RSA Conference years ago (thank you to everyone involved in that). This was my first in-person BlackHat conference, and while I didn't see any booth babes, I did observe floorwalkers (before/after their shift, so I did not call it out without direct evidence, and stalking the attractive women in scanty outfits until I could do so seemed ... unseemly). I think it's time that we, as an industry, cut this out. So here is your easy standard, CMOs: if you are hiring external staff as part of a conference, whether it is to woman* your booth, glam up your party, or anything where they represent your company: you should apply the same gender diversity approach you want HR to apply to new hires. If you're hiring all women, that's just as much of a problem as if your company was only hiring men. Since this staff is going to represent your company, they should probably have the same demographics as your employees -- if your company is currently 80% male, then your outside event staff ... should be 80% male. *Yes, technically, we should switch the usual "man your booth" to "staff your booth," but let's be honest, you're all hiring women to glam up your booth. #inclusion #diversity
