Why OOPS Might Just Be the Best Thing to Ever Happen to You



Most people run from mistakes. But what if your next big opportunity was hiding inside your last “oops”?


OOPS isn’t a blunder—it’s the Office of Possibilities https://www.nmc.edu/about/foundation/engage/oops/index.html.


This isn't some stiff think tank or red-tape committee. It’s a real-time, roll-up-your-sleeves innovation lab that gives your half-baked, messy, wild ideas a safe place to breathe. Just show up, share, and start building. No slideshows. No gatekeepers. No excuses.


This is the kind of radical environment that Charge Like a Bull was written for.

🔥 From the Book: Breakthrough Value Proposition

In Charge Like a Bull, I teach that your breakthrough value proposition—that bold promise that makes you the obvious choice—isn’t discovered in your comfort zone. It comes from friction. From field tests. From risk.


That’s what OOPS does best. They let people put real ideas into real conversations with real humans. That’s how you trim the fat, find your edge, and dial in your bullseye offering.

🧠 From the Book: Growth-Minded Advisory Boards

Here’s the truth: going solo is a trap. In Chapter 10 of my book, I dig into why building a growth-minded advisory board is the most overlooked acceleration move in business. And OOPS proves it.


They’ve assembled a dynamic, diverse crew of educators, founders, ecosystem builders, and creators. These folks don’t just clap for your ideas—they sharpen them, challenge them, and help you go further faster. That’s what a real advisory brain trust looks like.

⚡ Spark Actions:

  1. Attend an OOPS open session this Tuesday at The Grove Community Incubator https://www.groveincubator.org/ . Bring your wildest idea. Yes, that one.


  2. Rewrite your value proposition today—make it sharper, shorter, and scarier (in a good way).


  3. Pick one person for your future advisory board and send them a coffee invite.


  4. Reread Chapters 4 and 10 of my book with fresh eyes and a journal next to you.


  5. Own your latest OOPS. Write it out, and ask: “What possibility lives inside this mess?”


🐂 Final Thought

This isn’t about avoiding mistakes. It’s about building a life—and a business—where OOPS moments are launchpads. The bull doesn’t ask for permission to enter the ring. It charges.

Be that bull.
