    I just got punched in the stomach by that…I used the “I’m too tired” excuse just this morning…

    Forget the excuses…remember the goal. Thanks Nike for this one!

    WOW!!! That hi me right in the gut line….I use way too many of those myself, and think I am so unique….so much for that!!!!!!!!!!! Thank God that tomorrow is a new day, and that I saw that commercial. My day will change, and I will stop using excuses for my business, my exercise routine, and my life. Thanks Robert!

    Complaining is negative energy. Turn it around, and soar. Positive energy is so contagious…choose to be a carrier.

    What a motivational, inspirational commercial. Puts those “excuses” into perspective. I’m glad I took a minute to watch it.

    I was just having a coaching session with a manager complaining about his staffs’ excuses. I shared this with him, and he stopped complaining about his staffs’ excuses. He said that he was making excuses, too, and needed to take action.

    At the same time, I realized that I am not 100% vested in my success, that I make excuses every day. This was a wonderful reminder that I can push myself further.

    Thank you for the reminder.

    Powerful stuff. I sit in a cubicle in corporate America everday seeing my dreams die in my imagination and I come up with excuse after excuse why I have quit and followed my passion. That was the best commercial I have ever seen! Just like the above guy said, I have heard people use those excuses but it hurts more to hear the ones I use and try to defend.

    WOW ! ! How real was that!!!! The sad part is, there weren’t many I hadn’t heard – - and the sadder part, there were some I had even used myself. Somehow though, when I used them I didn’t think they sounded like excuses. Boy was I wrong!
