Raseri team members jump-started 2012 with the annual Keys to Success Meeting! During the two-day event, team members from all departments gathered together to network, learn, and brainstorm. Some team members and campaign teams were also recognized during the awards ceremony, which honored those who have made a significant impact over 2011.
Our offices also attended an offsite bowling fundraiser, which was donated to EARTHS Magnet School in Newbury Park. The funds were raised through a Queen of Hearts game, which enabled us to donate more than $600 to the school!
All of us were so lucky to hear from
our guest speaker, Eric Greitens, Navy SEAL and award-winning author of “The
Heart and the Fist.” The most powerful part of his message was the
mindset required to survive the Navy Seal boot camp. Only about 10 percent of
these highly-fit soldiers make it. Eric said that it was not the great
collegiate athletes that survived. Instead, it was the ones with the greatest
will.
The attributes that he described for
the successful are the same ones that are needed for success in our business.
“Confront your fear
and push yourself.”
“Courage is the courage of perseverance of willing to do the hard things day after day.”
“People quit when they think how hard it is going to be, but rarely when they are doing those hard things.”
“The Navy Seal challenges are called ‘evolutions’. Your character evolves until you get to the place where you change who you are.”
“To get the life you want, change the compass just a few degrees and march in that direction every day.”
“If you attempt a challenge and do not succeed, the challenge always remains – the challenge always remains.”
