Ready For Some Saturday Olympic Hilarity? 🤣🏅
From napping Marathoners to identity-swapping Gymnasts, follow Mike into the mishaps !
(Whilst covering lessons for Content Creation, Coaching+Commercial Writing too.)
Get ready to laugh and learn! 😂✍️
1. The Marathon Mix-Up 🏃♂️😴🚗
At the 1904 Olympics, a runner had a power nap and still finished 4th. WTF !
Plan your content like an athlete: But not that one !
Content creation is a Marathon not a Sprint kids.
But no napping ok!
2. The Pigeon Incident 🕊️🎯😱
In 1900, live pigeons were used in shooting events.
(There's one that I could think of using for that !)
We need to expect the unexpected in Coaching too.
Always have a backup plan, or risk getting your feathers ruffled. 🐦🔫🤣 #CoachingLife
3. The Rowboat Rescue 🚣♂️🌊💖
I read that in the 1928 Olympics, a dude paused mid-race to save a drowning opponent !
And in all seriousness, addressing urgent client needs is also what I do.
Sometimes, saving the day matters more than just winning the race. 🏅👊 #ClientFirst
4. The Pole Vault Borrow 🏆🤸♂️📦
In 1900, a vaulter borrowed a pole and still won gold!
The lesson ? When resources are limited, get creative.
Do that and you can vault over any obstacles to eventual success. 🏅📈
5. Gymnast’s Sneaky Switch 🤸♂️🕵️♂️🏅
In 1956, a Soviet gymnast swapped identities with her twin sister, competing twice under different names!
As Coaches, we have to innovate with creative, unconventional methods to help clients flip their performance too 🤸♀️🎩✨ #CoachingTips
6. The Lost Race 🍳🏃♂️🍾
The 1904 marathon winner drank brandy and ate egg whites before the race...
Dang.
Me? Just 16 Coffees and im ready go !
(Breakfast of champions baby)
Keep your writing marathon-ready. Just like Mike, 📝🏅🥂
7. Tumble of '84 🤦♂️🏊♂️😆
In 1984, a diver misjudged the board’s length and fell off before diving.
How can we learn from his mishap?
Double-check details in content creation to avoid diving into errors. (See what I did there)
Precision saves us from a splashy flop dudes. 💦😂
8. The Horse Who Said "Neigh" 🐴🙅♂️🥇
In 1932, a horse refused to jump, costing its rider a medal. Id send that thing to the Glue Factory quicker than you could say Bostik.
Prepare for unpredictability in coaching. Adapt your methods based on client feedback🐎💼👍
9. The "Miss"-Communications 📣🇸🇪🙊
In 1932, judges mistook a Swedish hand gesture for a rude cultural swear sign!
(Two fingers up at the Judge)
Clear communication is key in writing.
Avoid mixed signals to ensure your message scores. 🥇📢🔍
10 RECAP
So there we have it...
If messing up was an Olympic sport, every one of us would be Gold Medal Winners.
But thats ok !
(I told you before that failures are all an essential part of the journey)
Lets take out the funny bits and give you a recap of the salient points...
