OLSON--Week 10

YouTube + OLSON + Freestyle Rap = Fastest-growing viral phenomenon known to man.

Post it to your Facebook. Tweet about it. Blog about it. Grab a screen capture and stick it on your car’s window (hey, it’s a hot one out there, you need something to protect yourself from the heat). This new YouTube sensation brought enough heat to OLSON that we needed to crank the A/C to compensate. You’d think you were in an igloo according to the dial, but the second you’re in here, you can’t help but feel your temperature rise due to all the hot talent this place has.

Speaking of hot talent, OLSON will be having its annual retreat at the end of this month. At the event, there is rumored to be a talent show of sorts. Challenge? This show requires 8–10 OLSONites to show off their talent for about three minutes to compete for incredible prizes. This was announced at Monday Status last week. Sounds great, right? Well, it was then revealed that unless the 10 O-terns did not find the talent, we would be it! I guess we’ll have to wait and see how it all turns out. Should be entertaining either way, to say the least.

Tip of the week: Always strive for more. Even if you are great at what you do, you can always be better. I found my new favorite quote recently: “Better is the enemy of best.” Getting down what is required of you is a good thing, whether that is in a job, in a friendship, etc. But, it is always a better thing to seek after improvement. This is typically harder to do when things are already going great and you are confident in what you are doing. That is still no excuse, in my opinion. Be the runner who refuses to slack, even if he is in first place.
