Thought Tweet #385

Thought Tweet #385 Workplace High-Pressure: does it cut the feet out from under your smartest people?
 
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
A high IQ doesn’t mean a high ability to work under stress. In fact, it is possible the opposite is true. Do you assume smart folks operate smart when the pressure is on? If so, perhaps, when the pressure is on people disappoint you.

Thought Tweet #383 "He who cherishes a beautiful vision, a lofty ideal in his heart, will one day realize it." James Allen
 
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
This is a quote from James Allen's 1903 book 'As a Man Thinketh'. Allen was a [modern-era] pioneer in the areas of positive thinking, abundance thinking, and the law of attraction. Apparently, Napoleon Hill and other self-development gurus were influenced by Allen's work. And, it seems Allen was influenced by Eastern philosophies.
