December 9, 2015 by Summer

Thank you for celebrating another great year with us, we enjoyed spending time with our amazing clients, co-workers and friends at our Customer Appreciation Event on Dec. 1st. The event was a wonderful success and we truly are grateful for your patronage over the last year.

Silent Impact by Joe Schmidt

We hope that you enjoyed our guest speaker Joe Schmidt and his inspirational and entertaining speech about purpose, persistence, and passion. We certainly did! Here are a few of our favorite quotes.

“We make our biggest impressions when we are not trying to be impressive.”
“Sometimes it’s the little things that make the biggest impact.”
“We all have a gift, make sure that you’re using it.”
“People won’t remember what you said or what you did, but they will remember how you made them feel.”
“Spend 90% of your time on the good stuff and only 10% of your time on the bad.”
“So many times we get so caught up in the destination that we forget to enjoy the journey.”
“If you want to be the best, you need to be better prepared than everyone else.”
“Be persistent in your passion.”
“Say a second “thank you” to those who made an impact in your life.”
“Think about who you would put on you Mt. Rushmore of impact. Simulate your life after those people.”
“Praise more, condemn less. There’s always something good to say about everyone.”

And how could we forget this one….“It don’t get no better than this!” It certainly doesn’t! We were thrilled that Joe shared a copy of this book“Silent Impact” with each of us. We couldn’t have had a better night. Thank you for being part of it!

In Life You Get What You Give

December 19, 2013 by Summer

In celebration of another great year, we held our appreciation event last week with our amazing clients, co-workers and friends. The event was a wonderful success and we truly are grateful for your patronage over the last year.

We hope that you enjoyed V.J. Smith as much as all of us from Corn Capital Innovations did! He was such a powerful speaker! If you were unable to attend the event, we found the perfect video to show you what we all learned that evening. This seven minute clip is full of snippets of what V.J. shared with us in Olivia. He introduced us to Marty, the richest man in town. Being loved, respected and content with every part of his life, with no regrets – that is what makes a rich man and that is Marty; a cashier at Wal-mart!

VJ Smith – The Richest Man in Town

We wanted to make this evening inspiring; something for you to really enjoy and connect with. It’s our way of saying thank you! Please enjoy our collection of photos from the event below.

Here are a few quotes from V.J. Smith’s speech that caught our attention:
“It doesn’t take talent to hustle.”
“Farm kids grew up hustling, always did and always will!”
“People need to decide to get happy.”
“Remember, in life you get what you give!”

How were you as inspired by Marty’s story? Was there a quote from V.J. Smith’s speech that you connected with? Please share in the comments. We wish you all a wonderful holiday season!
