I'm your host, Andrew McGivern, and today is November 7thInternational Stout Day – a holiday dedicated to the dark, complex, rich brew that you don’t just drink; you experience. I know what some of you are thinking: "It’s a beer, how complicated could it be?" But a good stout isn’t just poured; it’s built. It takes time and technique, with a multi-step pour that’s practically an art form.Here’s how it goes: you pour the first part and let it settle, watching that mesmerizing cascade of bubbles, almost hypnotic as they swirl downward, then slowly rise to the top. Then you wait. And, after the anticipation builds, you add the final pour, watch the foam settle into a perfect head… and finally, you take a sip. And, if it’s really good, you’ll probably start planning the next one before you’ve finished the first. Honestly, with all those steps, you almost need a project manager just to keep track of it all. And wouldn’t you know, today is also National Project Management Day – a day to celebrate all the meticulous planning that makes complex tasks look easy. So if you’ve got a KanBan board lying around, today’s the day to try applying it to a perfect pint.On that note, today’s quote comes from Napoleon Hill: Who once said...“Patience, persistence and perspiration make an unbeatable combination for success.” Let’s face it, if you’re pouring a stout the right way, you’re going to need all three of those. Patience – because the pour takes time. Persistence – because once you’ve had that first perfect sip, you’ll want to repeat the experience. And, well, perspiration might not be literal here, but let’s just say after managing a few "projects" aka perfect pours, you’ll have earned it.So today, as you raise a glass, remember: good things come to those who wait… and plan, and pour. Whether it’s a project or a pint, a little patience goes a long way.That's gonna do it for today... I'm Andrew McGivern, signing off for today.Thank you for joining me for today's show. I hope your day is as rich and satisfying as the perfect pint. And I'll see you tomorrow for another Daily Quote.Cheers!
