Are we all 'a little mad?'

Blog quote #1261... 

"No great mind has ever existed without a touch of madness." -Aristotle-

What a marvelous quote. It reminds us of most people we know. Darn accurate in our opinion. 

What about your views? You in agreement with the great Greek philosopher and scientist?

3 types of people...on things happening

Blog quote #1260... 

"I divide the world into three classes: the few-who make things happen; the many who watch things happen; and the vast majority who either wonder or have no idea of what happens. We need more people who make things happen." -N.Murray Butler-

Can we get a consensus agreement on Butler's point? Less  yappers and flappers, and more people getting things done.

How to get things COMPLETED...

Blog quote #1259... 

"The nail that sticks up, gets hammered down." -Japanese Proverb-

Another way of saying- the squeaky wheel gets the grease. If you need to get something done and it seems things are being passed over or just a lot of inaction--we recommend politely keeping your issue in front of those who can do something about it. Key word--POLITELY.   

Another way this could be described--is diligently following up. Seems in today's busy, distracted, noisy world, much follow up is recommended- to get things accomplished.

Does your diet include THIS?

Blog quote #1258... 

"Your diet is not only what you eat. It is what you watch, what you listen to, what you read, and the people you hang around. Be mindful of the things you put into your body- physically, emotionally and spiritually." -Anonymous--

Excellent clarification here. We could eat a Richard Simmons/Jack Lalanne perfect diet, all good for the body. 

But we are kidding ourselves if we don't monitor, AND, fine tune the other four ingredients listed above. They are equally, if not more important, than the food component.

Superb quote on Perspective...

Blog quote #1257... 

"What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly." -Richard Bach-

More proof that perspective is in the eye of the beholder. A different, yet important take here, is that many times, a good dollop of patience, yields wonderful results.

Plenty of other life lessons could be drawn from this masterful quote. Perhaps you'd care to share one?

How do people SHINE?

Blog quote #1256... 

"Everyone shines, given the right lighting." -Susan Cain-

Today's quote is up for discussion. Hmm...how do you interpret this one? What kind of lighting do you think Susan means?
