@C_LaFrance Love it! So true.

Have you ever taken an 8-hour flight? Long flights can feel endless - you may even find a slew of articles to help you "survive" and "fight boredom." Think about this the next time you start your workday - 8 hours is a loooooong time. How are you allocating it?

Happy #StPatricksDay from the #NHLAlumni Association! ☘️💚

The psychology of fighting Zoom fatigue: (1) Increase mobility: give permission to walk around (2) Reduce eye contact intensity: sit farther away (3) Reduce mental load: hold audio-only sessions (4) Reduce self-consciousness: turn off the self-view news.stanford.edu/2021/02/23/fou…

Great example of taking a negative (covid leading to cancellation of NHL Winter Classic) & finding a positive (Lake Tahoe games). And, new future revenue driver.

Teddy Roosevelt is a boss - he achieved more before age 30 than most do in a lifetime. At 23 and w/ no naval experience, he authored 'The Naval War of 1812', which became a college textbook. Get inspired during covid and read 'The Rise of TR' or at least google him:)

Most people ignore opportunities because they see only danger. Entrepreneurs ignore danger because they see only opportunities.

As a former athlete, one challenge is to not reflect on your career and say, “What if I had just done _____ differently?,” but to use those mistakes as life lessons. Easier said than done!

Please help 12-year old Halle raise $ for rare cancer surgery @ the U of Pittsburgh. To raise awareness, do a handstand & post it on SM. #handstandsforhalle | gofundme.com/f/9fj5jz-help-…

If LA can support 2 NFL & 2 NBA teams playing in the same stadium/arena, Toronto, the center of the hockey universe, can easily support 2 NHL teams. Furthermore, Toronto, the 4th largest city in North America, deserves an NFL team. #WeTheNorth #TO theathletic.com/2228355/2020/1…

Crazy Stat: If someone is obese at age 13, they have an 80% chance of being obese for their adult life. Imagine the reduction if we all could just walk 10k steps/day. Netflix is great but it is not part of the solution. #GetThoseStepsIn

@JoeVennare @fittinsider @zawthet @movewithexer Great podcast! “I really just think Business Development is a fancy term they made up to get MBAs to do sales.” 😂😂 I particularly liked learning about Zaw’s dual sales strategy: tops down (by leadership team) and bottoms up (by growth team).

New @fittinsider podcast w/@zawthet CEO of @movewithexer on: - using AI & computer vision to create leaderboards for any virtual workout, w/no extra hardware - partnering w/Zoom to easily add Exer to classes - B2B2C model helping remote trainers 🔊 insider.fitt.co/57-startup-spo…

Thank you, Veterans. I have so much respect & admiration for your courageousness. One of the things I miss about playing in the NHL is being on the ice during a game when Veterans were introduced & seeing both the fans & players stand & applaud. #VeteransDay #RemembranceDay

@AdammH24 Love it! One of my most memorable experiences in the NHL was being a part of the jersey retirement of #3 in MTL.

What do you think @ryanobyrne84 just picked up this #Habs package from probably your biggest fan in MTL! #GoHabsGo 🔵⚪️🔴

Extremely proud & happy for my good friend & NHL player agent, Bayne Pettinger, for coming out! I applaud him for being so courageous and vulnerable -- a lesson for us all. #love #pride theathletic.com/2178746/2020/1…

Craft a one-sentence statement to guide your professional life (e.g. I will only work for a company whose product/service I use). Do this and you will eliminate so many future decisions. #careerdirection #decisionmaking

How to use communication & humility to lead -> See New Zealand PM, Jacinda Ardern. At the peak of Covid, she would post on FB Live from her home at night wearing a casual sweater & looking directly into her phone to reiterate key messages. Result = Buy-In. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Last month, I completed my MBA from the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University. I want to thank my family for the support, and my Kellogg professors, friends, and classmates for making the last 2 years such an incredibe experience. On to the next chapter!
