i-TFTD #113

i-TFTD #113

#113-1. It is an immutable law in business that words are words, explanations are explanations, promises are promises, but only performance is reality.

-Harold S. Geneen

#113-2. If you want things to stay as they are, things will have to change.
-Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa

#113-3. Be conscious of your inner reactions, whether positive, negative or perhaps no reaction at all.  Be prepared to step aside  and ask, "Why am I reacting this way?" or "What is being said that makes me feel this way?"  If you do this, I believe you  will discover some important things about yourself.  Remember... discovery, growth, and change must begin with you.

-Thomas D. Willhite

Change is inevitable, change is necessary for growth, but evolution has designed the human brain to create and stick with stability--with the capability to consciously adapt to change. We often see signs of change around us but refuse to acknowledge it, as brought out in the bestseller, "Who Moved My Cheese?"
