Here's Blog Quote #692...
"It's an evolution, not a revolution."
-Pete King, architect, thinker, and leader-

What a powerful descriptive quote for six words.King uses this with his workforce when he is implementing slow but effective change. The cultural positive shift that he refers to is a dose of reality and good, quality management. 

It's real world change--and how it happens. Like the line, 'there's no elevator to success; you have to take the stairs'--this is a similar description of how authentic, IMPACTFUL change happens. Slow and steady, yet, with measurable results.

Perhaps all of us can learn a thing or two from King's mantra.
Onward...

That's my view...what say you?

Here's Blog Quote #691...
"It's not enough that we do our best; sometimes we have to do what's required."
-Winston Churchill-

This hinting at...just get the job done, rather than finding excuses and covering that with the blanket..."Well I did my best." Did you really to do all you could do--to make sure the mission got completed?

A thorough inquiry into that last question will almost always return with the answer: NO.

Churchill suggests to do what's required, to make sure what needs to be finished/accomplished, does in fact, get accomplished. We concur with Winston!

Unknown if this was serious or kidding, but it's pretty funny. 

And for those who've never had it--the salad dressings are very good!

Have a Marvelous Monday!

Blog Quote #687...

Here's Blog Quote #687...
"All the advice in the world will never help you, until you help yourself."
-Fred Van Amburgh-

Advice--- it's good, but it's also a dime a dozen. Sometimes we want it; sometimes we don't. Sometimes we get it unsolicited, and other times we ask and ask, and we can't get any. 

Sometimes it's expensive and other times it's free. Some is good and other is not so wonderful. Some comes with an agenda, and other times- strictly for your own good.

One thing for sure...if the person on the receiving end is not willing to take it and somehow put some of the advice to use-- it becomes worthless.

Which usually means the one receiving, has to be ready and committed to take some sort of action. Sometimes getting the advice is the easy part. What to do with it and getting it into action...is another story. 

Hmm...

Here's Blog Quote #686...
"For every minute you remain angry, you give up sixty seconds of peace of mind."
-Ralph Waldo Emerson-

When viewed in this light, it seems downright dumb to stay angry for any extended period of time. Plus on top of that, we as humans don't make many smart decisions when we are in a angry or distasteful mood.

So, let's all stop wasting time and energy on being angry. Unless there's a truckload of benefits that come with madness?

RRRRRRRR...
