BE AWARE LIKE DICKENS, THINK LIKE DRUCKER, ACT LIKE BUFFETT
AWARENESS
"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to heaven, we were all going direct the other way..."
Charles Dickens ~ Tale of Two Cities ~ (1859)
THOUGHT
"In a few hundred years, when the history of our time will be written from a long-term perspective, it is likely that the most important event historians will see is not technology, not the Internet, not e-commerce. It is an unprecedented change in the human condition. For the first time -- literally -- substantial and rapidly growing numbers of people have choices. For the first time, they will have to manage themselves."
Peter F. Drucker ~ Managing Knowledge Means Managing Oneself ~ (2000)
ACTION
"We all know how successful Warren Buffett has been with his company, Berkshire Hathaway. We also should know that he's invested in more than one company ~ over fifty to date. So why then do so many Networking professionals invest or work with just one company? And, for those that have not yet invested, why would you wait given that our industry has produced the youngest billionaire in the world, Mark Zuckerberg (founder of Facebook), who has made his fortune through Word of Mouth marketing?"
