A Word on Honesty From Joe Maddon

Jan Leasure - Libertyville, IL Mortgage Broker

I think Joe Maddon is not only a great baseball coach, but he also has some great philosophies on life I’d like to share with you.

Today, I wanted to share with you an inspirational quote by Joe Maddon, the coach of the reigning World Series champion Chicago Cubs:

“If I’m honest with you, you might not like me for a day or two, but if I lie to you, you’re going to hate me forever.”

That line would be my next tattoo if I could minimize it enough. In my business, it’s important to be very transparent. If people misunderstand what you’re saying, or they even think that you’re not being honest with them, they’ll end your relationship with them and never come back.

The importance of transparency doesn’t just apply to business relationships, though; it also applies to your personal relationships. In all walks of life, remember to be honest and transparent.

Honesty and transparency are important in all walks of life.

If you have any questions about this topic and or how I apply it to my business, please don’t hesitate to give me a call or send me an email. I look forward to hearing from you!
