Talent
January 19, 2010
“There’s a common misconception that a person’s skill is their talent. Skills, however, are not talents. Talents, on the other hand, require skills. People can have skills and knowledge in areas where their talents do not lie. If they have a job that requires their skills but not their talents, organizations will never tap into their passion or voice. They’ll go through the motions, but this will only make them appear to need external supervision and motivation.”

This little light
December 28, 2009
“You may not think the world needs you, but it does. You are an unique, one-time, unrepeatable event in the Universe. There has never been nor will there ever be anyone else exactly like you. No one can speak with your voice, smile your smile or shine your light. No one can take your place, for it is yours alone to fill. If you are not there to shine your light, who knows how many travelers will lose their way as they try to pass by your empty place in the darkness.”
- Lawrence Mahar

Enterprising people
December 13, 2009
“An enterprising person is one who comes across a pile of scrap metal and sees the making of a wonderful sculpture. An enterprising person is one who drives through an old decrepit part of town and sees a new housing development. An enterprising person is one who sees opportunity in all areas of life.”
- Jim Rohn
