Get Out Of Your Way!

Having trouble recruiting the right people? Do you spend a lot of time and money training up staff only to have them leave as soon as they qualify? Perhaps it's time to take a good long hard look at yourself and how you are running your business and what you could do better.

This was inscribed on a tombstone:

I Wanted To Change The World...

When I was a young man, I wanted to change the world. I found it was difficult to change the world, so I tried to change my nation. When I found I couldn't change the nation, I began to focus on my town. I couldn't change the town and as an older man, I tried to change my family. Now, as an old man, I realise the only thing I can change is myself, and suddenly I realize that if long ago I had changed myself, I could have made an impact on my family. My family and I could have made an impact on our town. Their impact could have changed the nation and I could indeed have changed the world.
