Thom's Super Power

Thom takes pride in making the best twice baked potatoes that any of us has ever tasted.

Thom and three other professional speakers are in a mastermind.  Twice a year, they go on and rent an Airbnb for three days. The entire time, they talk about business. On their first night, they eat out. On the second night, they take turns cooking. Thom bakes his twice baked potatoes that cannot be found in any restaurant. 

Thom uses a secret recipe that he doesn’t share with anyone.

Quotes

Everything that goes into live meetings, it's a bigger hit on the GDP than the automotive business.

The entrepreneurial people realize that in a down-turn is the time to sharpen your saw and get out there and figure out new things.

Be slow to anger, and fast to forgive, so that you can put your emotions and your attention into the things that matter.
