It's good to have a plan until your kid throws up all over you. I was dressed in my best suit, ready for an important meeting, and then... disaster struck in the most unexpected and, frankly, gross way. This isn't a hypothetical scenario; it's how one of the most pivotal days of my career began.

I don't, but I've found that C.A.T. is a powerful acronym for posting content on LinkedIn. Here's the concept...
C - Connect

Everyone in our group sat down at the Blackjack table.
One of my friends, who was playing Blackjack for the first time, won a ton of money.
While getting up from the table, the gentleman next to me said, “that's the worst thing that could happen to a rookie gambler.”
