  2. My advice for tough times: **Put “clever” on hold. **Basics rule! **Execution rules! **Opportunism—and there may be some or a lot of room for it—is pulled off through excellence in execution, not ingenuity. **The game is won or lost at the front line! (More than ever, if that’s possible.) **Showing up rules! **Excellence rules! **MBWA rules!

  3. My advice for tough times: **Keep it simple! **Transparency rules: Shoot straighter than straight! **Go for “small wins”! **“Thoughtful in all we do”—regardless of how much yogurt (shit) is hitting the fan. **In tough times, those who play the blame game in any way, shape, or form get the first pink slips! **Special for BigCo CEOs: “Opportunistically” bulking up by buying big pieces of crap at bargain prices is tempting but truly a sign of advanced brain damage.

My advice for tough times/Managers: **Banish gloomy from your personal demeanor— if it kills you! **“Sunny” is pretty stupid, too: Who do you think you’re kidding. **“Determined”-“Gettin’ on with gettin’ on” is best. **The great juggling act: PMA while preparing for the worst. (Positive Mental Attitude—but know the drill if the recession goes 24 months, which it easily might.
