Be Your Best, Take Bold Risks & Win.
A client called me a few months ago and said, “Mike, we need to find the next Mike Lipkin. Our people have seen you five times already.”
I told them: I am the next Mike Lipkin.
Here’s what I mean. The guy they’ll see in three months is not the guy they saw a year ago. There’s an old saying that captures it perfectly — no man can step into the same river twice. It’s not the same river, and he’s not the same man.
Before I get on a call with a client, whether it’s a Zoom, a Teams call, or a meeting in person, I make sure I show up in a way that energizes the other person just by how I show up — before I’ve said a single word. Because that first impression happens before your first word does.
And here’s the part people miss: even with relationships I’ve had for years, I show up like it’s day one. Not because I’m faking enthusiasm, but because I’m not the same person I was the last time we spoke. None of us are.
That’s the real work — not performing a version of yourself, but continuing to evolve into you 2.0, then 3.0, then 17.0. It never stops, and it shouldn’t.
When’s the last time you showed up to a familiar relationship or a routine meeting like it was day one?
