It’s all in the application.


You all know a ton of motivational and business sayings.  Yes you do.  Here’s the issue we all know these great things but it’s how we apply them to our business that sets us apart from the also ran’s.

Here are some of my favourite sayings that I know you can apply to your business,(with just a little thought). Check them out and see which ones are appropriate for your business.

"One machine can do the work of fifty ordinary men. No machine can do the work of one extraordinary man."            -- Elbert Hubbard

"We must open the doors of opportunity. But we must also equip our people to walk through those doors."        -- Lyndon B. Johnson

"The road to happiness lies in two simple principles: find what it is that interests you and that you can do well, and when you find it, put your whole soul into it ---every bit of energy and ambition and natural ability you have."
--- John D. Rockefeller III

"Champions know that their success is inevitable and that the best way to forecast the future is not to follow the benchmark but to create it." Warren Giffin

“Practice does not make perfect. Only perfect practice makes perfect” Vince Lombardi

Some unattributed quotations
Success: We cannot direct the wind, but we can adjust the sails.
Risk: You cannot discover new oceans unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore.
Imagination: A mind stretched by new ideas never regains its original dimensions.
Opportunity: You'll always miss 100% of the shots you don't take.
Effort: Life does not require us to be the biggest or the best. It only asks that we try.
Teamwork: There is no exercise better for the heart than reaching out and lifting people up.
And Teamwork is the fuel that allows common people to achieve uncommon results.
Courage: In the end the only people who fail are those who do not try.
Excellence: Some succeed because they are destined to. Others succeed because they are determined to. (which are you?)

Oh by the way.  How many legs does the Elephant have?
