"Look at the donut, not the hole." ...age-old advice from one of my former coaches, reminding us to look at what we have, not what we don't


Remember, Babe Ruth may have been one of the great homerun hitters of all time, but he also struck out a lot, too. The job search is just like that, especially in this economy. Keep getting back up there and swinging for the fence!

Change and Adaptation: As Inevitable as Taxes

It is impossible to avoid stagnation if one does not foster change.  Likewise, it is essential that we adapt to changes in the world around us.  With both an unwillingness to change and an unwillingness to adapt, we run the risk of being left behind.  The individuals whose words are below understood this human truth, and we can all learn from their advice.

"Adapt or perish, now as ever, is nature's inexorable imperative."
                                                           --H. G. Wells

"Enjoying success requires the ability to adapt. Only by being open to change will you have a true opportunity to get the most from your talent."
                                                           --Nolan Ryan

"Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change."
                                                           --Stephen Hawking

And without further ado, today's leads:


Have a great day!
