Monday Morning Memo

Executives often make trade-offs, prioritizing wealth and recognition over family and a grounded life. But are the benefits of these trade-offs worth it? That question prompted Butch Meily to write a memoir about the years he spent as an aide to Reginald Lewis, the first African-American to build a billion-dollar company. Reginald reached extraordinary heights and brought Butch along with him. But the lives of these men provide a cautionary tale of the price each of them paid for their achievements. Spend a few minutes with Butch Meily and roving reporter Rotbart today and you will learn how to build boldly, lead wisely, and never forget to live.

Random Quote:

“When the New York Times columnist David Brooks talks about the difference between ‘résumé virtues’ and ‘eulogy virtues,’ he’s effectively putting the ashramas in a practical context. Résumé virtues are professional and oriented toward earthly success. They require comparison with others. Eulogy virtues are are ethical and spiritual, and require no comparison.

Time is limited, and professional ambition crowds out things that ultimately matter more. To move from résumé virtues to eulogy virtues is to move from activities focused on the self to activities focused on others.”

- Arthur C. Brooks, The Atlantic, July, 2019 p. 73 and p. 76
