Every morning, we gather here to contemplate, plan, soak up inspiration, harvest motivation, and get jacked up on coffee and confidence for a day of kicking ass.
GOOD MORNING TO YOU MY FELLOW AMERICANS. I WANT YOU TO DO ME A FAVOR. NORMALLY, I WOULD NEVER ASK YOU TO STRAY AWAY FROM PGP, BECAUSE THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT WEBSITE IN THE WORLD, HANDS DOWN, AND THERE’S REALLY NO NEED FOR YOU TO GO ANYWHERE ELSE. BUT TODAY, FRIENDS, I HAVE A SPECIAL REQUEST. I WANT YOU TO LOG IN TO FACEBOOK AND SCROLL. JUST SCROLL AND LOOK AT THE FACES OF THE STUPID PEOPLE THAT COME ACROSS YOUR SCREEN. LOOK AT ALL THE INEXPLICABLY IDIOTIC SHIT THEY HAVE TO SAY. THESE ARE THE PEOPLE YOU’RE COMPETING AGAINST ON A DAILY BASIS FOR GREAT SUCCESS. YOU HAVE ZERO FUCKING EXCUSE FOR NOT CRUSHING ALL OF THE SIMPLETONS. MY GOD, LOOK AT THEM. THEY’RE BUFFOONS! INCH BY INCH, YOU MUST CRUSH THEM TODAY. DESTROY THOSE FOOLS. MOST OF THEM AREN’T FIT TO SHINE YOUR SHOES, BECAUSE YOU’RE A CHAMPION, AND THEY ARE SCUM.
INCH BY INCH. ONE INCH AT A TIME. CLAW WITH YOUR FINGERNAILS FOR THAT INCH.
Now, on a lighter note, enjoy the musings of #business great Michael Scott. Because if there’s one thing that’s just as important as crushing those who weren’t blessed with a brain or testicles (metaphorically for the ladies) the size of yours, it’s starting your day with a good laugh.
What’s on your schedule this morning? What are you going to conquer today? Let us know in the comments section below. Positivity only. Build the energy. Come correct or don’t come at all..

Just heard Bob Seger and Lynyrd Skynyrd on the radio and now I’m ready to fuck the world.
Pulled an all nighter working on a new account. Needed this shit. I’m mentally exhausted, but today is a new day… and inch by inch… deal by deal… we’ll climb our way to the top rung of that corporate ladder.
It’s us and our coffee against the world. We’re either going to win, or we’re going to lose. And by God dammit, it pays to be a winner!!
Putting my heart and soul into the next installment of People Who Know Shit. Publishing shortly. I have multiple offsite meetings today, so I’ll be about town doing business in a fresh V Vines button down, courtesy of Man Outfitters. Very excited to roll out the new series section on Peej that allows for easy access to our most popular serialized content. We also just dropped a hot batch of new tees on Rowdy Gentleman. Gonna be a great day!
Nice plugs…I mean, content marketing.
First deposition on my own today. Plan on having two more cups so I’m just the right amount of wired
The dad bod/father figure is really coming in nicely. Had to loosen my belt one notch this morning. Going to drink more coffee, eat less, and really get some good cardio in tonight
About halfway through an animation project due at 1 PM today that I’ve been working (literally) constantly on since 8 AM yesterday morning.
I want to die.
We’re attempting to overhaul an entire landscape for an estate today. Customer is flying in Friday. I’ve never been more stressed.
Just had a nice workout, had some egg and apple. A chilled Iced Carmel Macchiato and into the offices of EZGO in Augusta.
Hey I hear there’s a pretty big golf thing going on there kinda soon, sup?
I wouldn’t know, they don’t let us accountants out of the closet often.
Hey everyone, I’m in need of advice. I got paid twice by my employer this morning. I should say something, right?
I’m fully aware this probably isn’t the ethical route, but I would probably keep it on the DL until they ask, and then I’d feign ignorance. But they’ll probably appreciate it more if you bring it to their attention.
I caved in and called my friend in HR. They appreciated the honesty and are letting me keep it.
Now THAT’s a power move. Nicely done, man!
Sup
Honestly depends on how big your company is. But uh if you want to keep it, here’s a thought. Transfer the money out of your account and hold the full balance of your paycheck for a while. Because ultimately, if they forget about it then you’re good, but if they come asking in 3 months for the money back they could withhold payment of a scheduled paycheck.
Thanks for the advice everyone! I appreciate it immensely. Also, I work in the NFL and if I hadn’t said anything, policy is immediate termination. So, let’s use my example as a case study for future payroll fuck ups.
GOOD MORNING CLOSERS. HOPE EVERYONE HAD A WONDERFUL EVENING FULL OF LOVE (OR AT LEAST FULL OF ALCOHOL). IM FEELING FUCKING GREAT TODAY. TWO CUPS IN AND IM ITCHING TO GET AFTER IT. IT IS SUCH AN HONOR TO SHARE OUR DEAL CLOSING MOTIVATION WITH A POWER COMMUNITY LIKE PGP. MAKE TODAY YOUR BITCH. #DCO
