FE: Hustle

Do you love the game?
I recently took a breath between projects and enjoyed watching “Hustleâ€, a 2022 comedy-drama starring Adam Sandler and Queen Latifah.
Gotta love the cast tie-in! My team worked with Queen Latifah on TV and radio spots over the winter and spring, https://www.ispot.tv/ad/bAea/pfizer-inc-move-fast-oral-treatment. And we’re gearing up for a private benefit concert in LA that Adam Sandler has been a part of.
Let’s take a closer look. The “Hustle†story revolves around Sandler's character Stanley Sugarman, a professional basketball scout for the legendary Philadelphia 76ers. It portrays Sugarman's nomadic lifestyle in search of THE potential NBA star, and juxtaposes that with what he truly yearns for: a more settled life with his family as an assistant coach for the team. Sugarman must overcome many obstacles to reach his own goals and simultaneously help those around him, and his methods for doing so exemplify the characteristics of an entrepreneur.
“Hustle†includes a wealth of entrepreneurial lessons and similarly shapes Sandler's character to embody the core traits of an entrepreneur himself.
Never Give Up
Entrepreneurs do not succumb to failure. Instead, they take hurdles in stride, learn, adjust and keep working towards their goals. Sugarman faces myriad hurdles: Living away from his family, being demoted, having a turbulent relationship with his boss, and dealing with a lack of support from those around him are among the many. However, Sugarman works carefully, has goals that encapsulate more than just himself, and understands that if he stays the course, his work will truly make a difference to many.
Practice Humility
Being humble is crucial in entrepreneurship. Excessive pride or arrogance can burn bridges with colleagues, blur goals and divide a unified team into factions. In “Hustleâ€, Sugarman practices humility. He understands that he has imperfections, will fail, and will subsequently need to lean on those around him.
We hope you enjoy the movie and inspo. Thank you for reading and we welcome your comments below!
