Words of Wisdom To Get You Through The Week!

What do Ben Franklin, John Wayne, Henry Ford, Thomas Edison and Wayne Gretzky all have in common? Don't all answer at once now! I'll throw out a few possibilities: Maybe they all loved pie. (Don't laugh, it's possible. My friends all love donuts.) Or maybe a better connection is that they were all inventors. Edison and Ford were inventors in the traditional sense — think light bulb and assembly line. Whereas with Gretzky and Wayne, one "invented" a new way to play hockey and the other gave us the iconic movie cowboy. Another connection is that they all said some memorable things in their day (yes, I know Gretzky is still alive and talking!). So this week I'm bringing you some of their quotes to live by. These words of wisdom are insightful and timeless and can be applied to life in general, as well as so many aspects of running a business. I hope you find them interesting and they get you thinking a little... or a lot!

Be Oh So Quotable This Week!

Maybe you'll find a way to work these quotes to live by into a conversation this week. Think how smart you'll sound referencing Benjamin Franklin or Thomas Edison in your next meeting! (Unless you're an actual hockey player, maybe don't use the Gretzky quote.) I always say running a business means the work never ends! Ain't that the truth? I bet your to-do list is a mile long! Make sure that the items at the top of your list are the things that relate to being more profitable. Everyone is so proud of being so "busy"...But Are You Making Any Money?
