Speaker 2:
Hey everybody, welcome to the Simple Biz 360 Podcast. My name's Jeff Mason, I'm your host for this four or five minutes, and we are on episode 232. Been going at this since mid-October 2019. We love it. We're on Rumble tv, IGTV YouTube tv, and then we are on 28 audio platforms. You can also find every one of our , uh, video podcasts on Simple Biz three sixty.com . Just go to the podcast , um, tab and look at any one of the five seasons. We're in season five right now, so we just , today, this episode is all about sharing learned business lessons. So we, we just wanna appeal to the millions and millions of business professionals out there who have great lessons learned from business stories. Share these lessons, share them with your company. Get your people around the conference room. Have a just , uh, have a nice , uh, easy casual session where you tell them and share with them lessons you've learned from business situations. Ask these people to get in the conference room. Ask them for a story , uh, from from each one of them about business lessons they've learned from working in your company. You know, no retribution, you know , just tell 'em, Hey, listen, nobody's gonna judge you . Just tell us what the story is and let's try to become better companies by sharing these lessons learned. I I , I can't tell you how much this philosophy has impacted me, this show, if you've been with it, if you've read my book, it , it's , it's not Jeff Mason pouring out advice to you. It's Jeff Mason referencing third party influencers taking their lessons they've learned, incorporating, incorporating them in my business, walk, extracting from the results of that incorporation in my business endeavors, and sharing just other stories with you in a way that asks a lot of questions. And we're gonna continue to ask a lot of questions and we just get you to think and we get you to realize that there are so many great lessons out there. When I was 20 years old, I was sitting in a social work class at Stockton University and it hit me. The professor was explaining the difference between a wise person and the wiser person saying the wise person learns from their own mistakes, but the wiser person learns from others' mistakes. And it just hit me like a ton of bricks. Like, why did I not understand that prior to age 20? But after that hearing that I, I, I embarked on life with a different mindset. I was gonna take a page out of other people's books. I was gonna learn from other people. I wasn't gonna put myself in these crazy situations to learn the hard way anymore. I was gonna learn from other people. Well, there are millions of business people out there that I can't even hold a candle to. And you have great stories. Start podcasts. Write a book. Get your people together in a conference room. Share those lessons learned. Share 'em with your family, your friends, your colleagues, your grandkids, your kids. They wanna know. And, and , and if we can do it in a way that doesn't sound, you know, like we're up on a pedestal. We're coming from the 30th floor, you know , uh, all spiffed up in our three piece suit and we, you know, we're a bag of chips and all that. No, we're just telling, we're just sharing our stories. Telling stories to get points across so that we all can service our customers better. And if we can service those customers better, they come back from more repeat business and they refer us to other people. Isn't that what it's all about? That's what we've tried to be all about for these five years. So we just invite you to do that. And you know, we're going to , we're gonna go to and visit a tune. 1966, chairman of the Board, Hoboken, New Jersey, Frank Sinatra. It's from his album. That's life. That's just life. Let's share it with other people. Thank you for tuning in. We will see you in 168 hours.
