Would you rather have bad gas or bad breath?

Hi, I’m Brian Pombo. Welcome back to Brian J. Pombo Live,

We tend to talk about business concepts here and I’m going to take something rather odd and tie it back to business in the most absurd way that I possibly can.

You see, I’m out on vacation with my family. I’m here on the Monterey Bay. And right on the beach, really nice little spot, have a good time.

I’m taking the chance to kind of have some reverent podcasts because I don’t have time to think hard about this. And so I’ve got these little icebreaker cards, which I discussed earlier, you could check that out in earlier episodes.

This one is asking the question, would you rather always have gas or always have bad breath. And personally, I would rather have bad breath, it’s easy to cover up. Bad breath. There are ways around it, you can if you always have it, that’s one thing, but it doesn’t say you can’t cover it up.

So you can chew gum, you can spray your mouth and other things to help make up for it, you can try to tuck away from people. Bad gas is a tough thing. There’s not much cover up, you could do with bad gas.

So I’d go with the bad breath. But this brings up a good point, when it comes to concepts of business and business strategy. Sometimes you’re in a scenario where you just have two bad options.

The real question is, what is the least worse option. And in that situation, what I have found is you’ve got to really know yourself, you’ve got to really know what you’re capable of what you’re good at and what you’re not capable of.

And you’ve got to know you got to have a little bit of Intuit intuitive sense about things and know just the timing of certain items.

Then the third thing I would say that you have to know is you have to know somebody that has a little bit of experience beyond you in the area that you’re looking to make a decision.

If you’ve got those things, you should be able to move forward and be able to make the right decision and be willing. I mean, the the real thing is to be willing to make the wrong decision.

There’s in business, the best thing about our business, there’s no always, always doesn’t exist, it’s always going to not be always, you can always change your mind, you can always switch it up.

There’s no mistake that can’t be unmade. In a sense, there’s a you can always turn around and completely switch back and go a completely different direction.

That’s the best thing about business we thank God we’re not stuck with always having to do this or always have to do that like having bad breath or bad gas. So there you go. There’s a way I flipped it around.

This is the easy way to be able to have a have a quick podcast with you tonight. I hope you’re having a good one. Wherever you’re at, go check out my book, 9 Ways to Amazon-Proof Your Business it will not be a promotion that I will be doing long-term I am moving on.
