Last night we took our two managers out for a nice dinner to thank them for helping us have a good 2011, and to toast what we hope will be an even better 2012.
I co-own two Oakland bars, The Ruby Room and Radio, with two other guys, and I often have to remind myself not to be stingy with praise. It’s just in my nature and how I was raised: when good things happen, I savor it for a millisecond, then put my nose back to the grindstone and plow forward.
Sure, that last thing you accomplished was good, but what next? How are you going to top it?
