Motivational
EIGHTY
PERCENT
OF
SUCCESS IS SHOWING UP.
-----------------------------------------------
The
only
way
to start to improve your life is to
start.
Once
you're sure
you're on the right road
there
is no need to
plan your journey too far ahead.
Don't
burden
yourself with doubts and fears
as
to the obstacles
that may bar your progress.
You
can only take
one step at a time.
You
don't need to
know all the answers in advance.
Just
maintain a
clear idea of the goal you want
to reach
and
the answers will
come in their own time.
If
you can get up
the courage to begin,
you'll
have the
courage to succeed.
It's
the job you
never start that takes the
longest to finish.
Go
after what you
want and you'll get it.

Why the Best Leaders
ARE the Best
Leaders - By John Maxwell
The
Best
Leaders
Get
the Best From Their People by. . .
1) Listening
The smartest leaders realize the
limitations of
their wisdom, and they7
listen to their people in order to capture
invaluable insights.
However, leaders don't just listen to gain
knowledge, they also listen
to give permission to take risks. Nothing
turns off an up and coming
leader like the deaf ear of a superior.
The best leaders don't simply
listen to incoming ideas; they
pro-actively draw them out of their
people they listen actively, not
passively.
2) Relating
Leaders touch a heart before they ask
for a hand.To
touch a heart a leader has to be open to
disclosing his or her identity
by sharing personal stories and owning up
to professional weaknesses.
Mysterious or aloof leaders may be
successful decision makers, but they
won't get the heartfelt loyalty that comes
from authentic relationships.

Richard
S. Lewine
The primary purpose of a Vision Statement
is to communicate a
consistent future view of the
organization to everyone involved with that
future's creation -
everyone! Whether senior
executive or computer programmer, the
performance of each individual
contributes to the desired
future state. Assurance that decisions made are
congruent with a
vision, requires that people have knowledge of
that future.
Creating the "paint by the numbers" picture of a
chosen future,
requires a belief that the decisions made today
are grounded in the
best available information, synthesized in a
competent manner, and will
be executed upon strategically and operationally
by individuals and
groups with the appropriate capabilities to
achieve success. Without
this basic belief, visioning becomes an exercise
in futility - blue sky
and rose colored glasses dreaming.
