One night, my dog Winston ate a pair of my earplugs.
So I assumed he ate them, but I wasn’t 100% sure.
Winston is a super good dog overall, but he loves eating plastic, rubber, and basically anything else he’s not supposed to have.🤷♂️
I know that Winston did indeed eat those earplugs…
Because this morning, I woke up to dog s*** all over my wife and I’s closet…
And in one of the numerous piles, I saw the remnants of those ear plugs.
Fortunately, we have hardwood floors in our closet and not carpet…😅
But it still sucked…
And I spent 15 minutes cleaning it up.
Gross stuff…
But the reason I’m sharing is this:
I don’t look at myself as a “guru,” but I know some people do think of me that way…
So anytime you start to think of me as a big deal, or feel intimidated to talk to me…
Just remember that I’m still a guy who sometimes spends his Saturday mornings on his hands and knees, scrubbing up dog s*** residue and dousing his floors with disinfectant.
That oughta help, haha
And really, it’s the same for a lot of other people who achieve a high profile in their lives too…
Famous folks, celebrities, and even those big offer owners who you wish you could write for.
Sure they’ve accomplished some cool things…🏆
But they’re just like the rest of us…
Good days and bad days…
Times where they are crushing life, and times where they’re cleaning up s***…
So if you want to connect with someone, don’t let their status stop you from making that happen.
