The 'Clintonian' definition of INSANITY is this: "Doing the same thing over and over again yet expecting different results."
Having that in mind, lets move on...
I'd like to share with you all a little piece of advice I recieved from my Economic's professor in college...Dr. Colleen Johnson. Smart woman...and I dont just mean book smart. She was sharper than a two-pionted tack. Anyways...here is what she told me upon graduation...Or, a close summary thereof...
If you always do what youve always done,
You will always see what you have always seen,
You will always know what you have always known,
You will always have what you have always had,
You will always feel what you have always felt,
You will always be what you have always been,
You will always get what you have always got,
BECAUSE you always do what you have always done.
If you do not like the things about yourself that you see, know, have, feel, get, or how you are, CHANGE SOMETHING!!! ANYTHING!!! YOU are the one that has the power to affect a change in your life...whether that be your personal life or your business life. If you change any one of those aspects, you will affect them all. That is the nature of change. And it doesnt have to be dramatic...It can be subtle. It can be as simple as eating an apple instead of a cinnamon roll...Or drinking a glass of water rather than drinking your 5th Mountian Dew for the day....Or, using the stairs rather than the elevator.
Now, go out there today and CHANGE SOMETHING! Try something new! Anything is possible!!!

Clint...
This post is dead on, we need to make changes if we want to see different results!
Richard -- Thank you very much, my man! And yes...that we do need to do! Especially in todays rough business market. Making a change isn't scary...its NECESSARY!!!
I agree with you. Mix things up and have some fun. Get out of the comfort zone and good things will happen! (Now step away from the cinnamon rolls).
Melody -- Thanks! I know alot of people get really scared when it comes to change. Thats one concept I never really did understand, to be honest. "Variety is the spice of life", right?
Oh my gosh, Clint. You hit the nail on the head with this one! Guess what my daily power quote said today???
"Every day do something that will inch you closer to a better tomorrow." Doug Firebaugh
Is that freaky or WHAT???
~Renae
Renae -- Officially - Yes. Glad you liked the post, my dear! And, thank you very much!
Clint, this is spot-on advice. If you're trying to effect change in your life, you need to change what you're doing... step outside of your comfort zone and do something different. Good advice.
Alan -- Thank you very much for the comment...and for agreeing with me! :-)
Clint,
But I like you just the way you are!!! :) Thanks, Fran
Fran -- Awwwww...That make me all fuzzy and special feeling. LOL
Great business strategy for today's market Clint. Have a great Wednesday
Hey guys, nice thoughts on getting out of the 'ruts.' I've been listening too the book Who Moved My Cheese, and that gives some more 'food for thought'.
Clint - does changing my underwear count? Or my mind? The biggest change I have to make, in my life, is from thinking to doing.
Paddy -- Thanks! And it goes way beyond business...but, thats one aspect that a company like mine can help with!
Charlie -- I love that book! One of my favorites!
Mike -- It does only if you change it in the different room every day. Plans are nothing without action. Doing is the way to success.
