From The Ashes ...

I found this on his website. I well and truly like this.

• Get and stay out of your comfort zone. Security is for cadavers.
• Focus on what you want to have happen. Remember the saying, "As you think, so shall you be."
• Take things a day at a time. You can get through anything one day at a time.
• Always be moving forward. Make it your goal to be better each day in some small way.
• Be quick to decide. As Gen. Sherman said, "A good plan violently executed today is better than a perfect plan tomorrow."
• Measure everything of significance. Anything that is measured and watched improves.
• Never let anybody push you around. You have just as much right to what you're doing as anyone else, provided it's legal.
• Never expect life to be fair. You make your own breaks.
• Solve your own problems. By coming up with your own solutions, you'll develop a competitive edge.
• There's always a reason to smile. My little brother reminds me, "We're not here for a long time. We're here for a good time."
