Dill was in a meeting last week and someone asked, “how do you stay positive?” It brought a smile to his face as Bryan Brousseau, an early ignitor, popped into his memory. They were in Seoul, South Korea bringing the Olympics to Life working with Coca-Cola on the 2004 Global Olympic Torch Relay. Everything that could go wrong with the stage video screen was going wrong, and we had less than one hour to fix the screen before the big event began. Some of the team was panicking. Small detail that this was Samsung’s Worldwide Headquarters, and Samsung was a major sponsor along with Coca-Cola for this Olympic Torch Relay. The Samsung team was understandably getting quite upset. Dill grabbed Bryan and escorted him around a corner out of sight and said, “We must not panic, We can do this!” Bryan looked at Dill and said, “Let’s make this a Yegative!”

In life, we all have moments like these. Thank you Bryan for reminding us to just turn those Negatives into “Yegatives”! The Torch arrived a bit late, the video screen got fixed, and the show was one of the best of the 2004 Olympic Torch Relay.

We are certain that if you approach everything you do with a “Yegative attitude”, you will always have a great outcome.
