Christmas Lights

No matter how carefully you stored the lights last year, they will be snarled again this Christmas.

My Calling

"After one has discovered what he is called for, he should set out to do it with all of the power that he has in his system."

Martin Luther King, Jr.
1929-1968
American Civil Rights Leader

Begin to Begin Now

"Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back. Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one elementary truth that ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamed would have come his way. Whatever you can do, or dream you can do, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it. Begin it now."

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe,
Famous novelist, poet and scientist

Passion & Enthusiasm

"Go at life every day with passion and enthusiasm... and when challenges arrive, simply do not give up."

Rick Wagoner (1953 - )
Chairman and CEO,
General Motors

The Secret of Style

"Have something to say, and say it as clearly as you can. That is the only secret of style."

Matthew Arnold
(1822-1888)
English poet

Brand & Reputation

"A brand for a company is like a reputation for a person. You earn reputation by trying to do hardthings well."

Jeff Bezos (1964 - )
CEO and cofounder
Amazon.com

Do the very BEST

"I do the very best I know how - the very best I can; and mean to keep doing so until the end. If the end brings me out all right, what is said against me won't amount to anything."

Abraham Lincoln
1809-1865,
16th President of the USA
