I couldn't believe the superbowl when Payton tossed that interception...ugh. But it is what was meant to be. Both QB's played with conviction and that's all that mattered. In the end, I was so happy for New Orleans because the city embraces that team like no other. Even Obama agreed in his interview with Kaiey Couric that the spirit of the city has persevered a great tragedy. Now let's uncover the genius behind that new show Undercover Boss....absolute great marketing for the person who got the spot immediately following the superbowl. It was all everyone was talking about by the watercooler the next day. Needless to say, this does make you take a step back and work with conviction and fire in everything you do....even the day to day admin tasks that are part of our creative businesses.

I absolutely believe in doing things from conviction. All too often there are forces that try to sway you or lower your standards. It's in these times that it is important to remember what you stand for and follow through. A truly inspiring post. Very well said, Sean. I absolutely believe in doing things from conviction.

That episode of Undercover Boss really reminded me to take a step back and appreciate and value time spent with our clients. To remind ourselves of all the reasons we started our businesses but so often lose sight of in the day to day stresses. I'd love to hear how that company changes and see an update in six months.
