Thought Tweet #900

by Rick Baker
On Dec 27, 2013

Thought Tweet #900 The more you hurry the more the Opportunities pass you by.

 

The Thinking Behind The Tweet

Many people have a self-image of a too-busy person..."I am too busy to do that!

When Opportunities seek out people to visit, they pretty much avoid all these too-busy people.

Opportunities prefer to visit with people who have some time to spend with them, some time to get to understand them, some time to hold their hands and walk with them....then run with them.

Thought Tweet #899

by Rick Baker

Thought Tweet #899 Change is tough. Some can't do it. Some won't do it. So they struggle with leadership.

 

The Thinking Behind The Tweet

Perhaps too many people attempt changes that are too large?

Perhaps too many people believe too much of the criticism they receive?

Perhaps failure to change is more about not knowing how than not wanting it?

Certainly, the epidemic captured in words like "I don't have time" plays a major role in opposition to 'changing for the better'.

Thought Tweet #896

Thought Tweet #896 Habits come in two flavours: green for Good and red for Bad. When you Influence others, don't make them see red.

 

The Thinking Behind The Tweet

There are only 2 ways to Influence others: (1) doing Habits & (2) doing New Things. Why not show your good habits and, at least once in a while, try some new things?
