When only winning is good enough

Bill Shankly - The Proposal Guys, Jon and BJ's Proposal Blog

Friends reading the blog will know that I am an avid Liverpool fan. US readers may need that translating into “Jon likes soccer”.

I couldn’t let today pass without noting, sadly, that it’s 25 years to the day since Bill Shankly (the legendary Liverpool manager), passed away. Anyone who’s heard me speak at conferences or on courses will know that I’m a great fan of one of his many memorable comments:

“First is first, second is nothing.”

With that philosophy, Shankly would have made a great proposal manager.
