When I read about how companies have to transform themselves, or fail, I realized that I have to do the same. Apparently, large companies like Kodak, Blockbuster & Borders couldn't compete and collapsed, but they had symptoms on their quarterly reports, and couldn't react in time to their competitors.
My point is that I want to change, and I can accept my weaknesses, but not responding to those weaknesses can cause longer term "failures" of bigger proportions, so it's okay to fail in the small ways I do daily, but progressing is important so I want to be flexible enough to survive the bigger challenges.
The only thing that stands between a man and what he wants from life is often merely the will to try it and the faith to believe that it is possible. - Richard M. DeVos
Quote of the Day: Failure does not count. If you accept this, you'll be successful. What causes most people to fail is that after one failure, they'll stop trying. - Frank Burford
I wonder if others see that in themselves or others? I can't see it in myself, except for embarrassingly saying it once. I do see it in my parent,and it's hard to get past.
