Can You See It? (You Will)
Do you consciously try to improve a little bit every day? Personally? Professionally?
Really not trying to annoy you, but I’ve spent 27 years of my life working for an organization that epitomizes excellence and continuous improvement, and epitomizes being the best – not one of the best, but THE best.
It was only a matter of time before the pace picked up.
That time has arrived.
Thanks to a ticking clock. Thanks to the iPad.
I wish I could tell you that I’ll wait for you, you know, until your ready to start living. But that’s now impossible.
There are 80 million blogs out there. There are 180,000 books written every year. A gazillion websites.
How does one capture the attention and interest of like-minded people? If you’re a business owner, a leader, a manager – how do you do it? The same way as everyone else?
Not So Dumb After All
Saw a Tony Robbins tweet the other day about “Seven Life-Changing Lessons Learned From Walt Disney”.
Had to read it, since I’m kinda familiar with the whole concept.
Make your day GREAT! It’s up to you. Let your light shine.
Trust me on this one, this one is actually some of my best work, if you can call One-Take-You Tube videos work.
Makes me laugh, because I just turn on the camera and start talking. No idea what I’m going to say. No editing. Just a One-Take-You Tube video.
Are You Serious?
Comedians are funny.
America’s Funniest Home Videos are funny.
Kids Say the Darndest Things show is funny.
Bloopers are funny.
Being serious is funny.
Huh?
Yes, being serious is funny. Remember the cartoon Walt Disney did so well back in the 1930′s, The Three Little Pigs?
Remember the one Pig that built his house with stone?
Pretty funny when the big bad wolf came and he huffed and he puffed and he blew the other houses down.
Now that’s funny.
What’s not funny, is that scene and this blog post may have been lost on ignorant, ill-prepared people who pawn themselves off as adults.
It's Who You Know
Heard this phrase the other night, probably on the TV as I was walking though a room, and I wrote it down.
“The art of compromise.”
We can take guesses as to what this means, or we can simply make up our own meaning. That’s what I did, and came up with five different ways:
The comment’s intent targeted the Senators power to say “no” to President Obama – relationships and the passing of President Obama’s Health Care Bill.
Some Senators held their vote until they got a really good deal for their state. This had people debating it’s fairness, and the Senator’s enormous power to say, “No.”
At the end of the day, it’s really about relationships and who you know.
Or maybe, just maybe, it’s about who you no.
Mind, body, spirit, money, and hq...
