0115. You NEED to Believe in YOURSELF!
Wednesday Sep 11, 2024
Wednesday Sep 11, 2024
One of the reason's Nick loves golf and racing. They are very much solo sports, golf more than racing. When you are driving it's all you in the race. When you are in the pit you have a team. When you are golfing, no one can handle your swing but you. No one controls your put but you. No one chips the ball but you. No one scores but you. When it comes to life, change start from looking in the mirror. That is the only person that can make a change in your life. Many people in the present day have an issue seeing believe in themselves. The problem is the belief comes in time when social media says it has to happen now. The change can happen now, but the results come with time and consistency. Your have to put the time and consitency in.

0114. Learn to life with a ROLEX.
Monday Sep 09, 2024
Monday Sep 09, 2024
One thing Nick has been saying a lot lately is "I want my inner circle to surround me with Rolex's". To have a Rolex means one of two things about your character which is easy to spot. One you like to showboat, or two you work your ass off and this is your trophy. We choose to surround ourselves with the later. A rising tide raises all ships and that is where Dawson MFG is heading. We are grabbing the next gear and we are about to disappear!

0111. What classifies your credentials and how important are they?
Monday Aug 26, 2024
Monday Aug 26, 2024
Nick and Kyle discuss credentials within hiring, who a person is and how to handle disagreements. No real right way but credentials go a long way when talking to certain people. A lawyer and doctor can have certain credentials compared to a business owner, but the execution of perfection can make the difference in the individual. You can be a doctor but not have a great practice and the businessman can have a highly profitable company making billions with great margins. The businessman has better credentials then the doctor.
