Some time ago, I started making inspirational slides for my computer desktop. While on vacation this weekend, Sue Ann and I came across a humorous sign at a tourist shop. We bought the sign…twice.

But that wasn’t enough for me. I took an image of our dog Harvey and placed the text on if for my inspirational desktop rotation. The slide itself is the graphic for this post.

But what does it mean?

Dogs have fierce concentration and focus. They also love strong smells. Don’t get me started on wild hog droppings….

A good business leader has to exhibit these same qualities, although hopefully with less malodorous drivers. We have to find something we love and devote our full attention to it. It has to become a key driver of our behaviors. In dog terms, we have to roll in it.

If we can’t give our businesses that level of devotion, we are in the wrong business.
