Proper Mental Attitudes
| Action springs not from thought, but from a readiness for responsibility.
-Dietrich Bonhoeffer-
Good fortune is what happens when opportunity meets with planning.
-Thomas A. Edison-
Think ahead. Don't let day-to-day operations
drive out planning.
-Donald Rumsfeld-

Sunny Side
of Life | Speaking of vacations...
The boss rewarded a long-time employee by granting him two months of vacation with full pay. The employee astonished everyone by turning down the offer! Later, a close friend asked him why he had done such a thing.
"Two reasons," said the employee. "First, I was worried that my absence for so long might have a negative impact on the business. Second, I was afraid that it might not have a negative impact!"

From the desk of Bob:
Greetings,
This week I am getting ready for a vacation in the Black Hills with my family, so will make this short and sweet.
For those of you who have heard me speak, you know what a passion I have for planning. Planning is certainly a vital part of who I am and what I am all about. As your read Monday Morning Motivations today, I hope you will enjoy the gentle reminder of the important role planning plays in successful living.
Have a great week! Bob

SEEDS of SUCCESS by Bob Prentice
|
| 
Are You Ready?Every
day, you and I each have the opportunity to make numerous choices and
decisions. I have discovered that being ready for the opportunities that come
my way makes it easier for me to make wise choices and decisions. One of the
many benefits of being ready for opportunities is an increased sense of
confidence. Feeling confident makes me more willing to step out and take a risk
than I would be if I wasn't ready. Of course it goes without saying, success is
much more likely when I am well prepared.
So,
how can one be ready for opportunities when they come? I believe the answer to
that question is simply this: You must have a plan. We've all heard it said,
"Fail to plan, you plan to fail." This is so true. I would venture to
say that having a plan in your head-while it is better than no plan at all-is
not enough. By writing down and thinking out on paper your strategies and plans
for the future, you can see things from a whole different perspective. Planning
helps you to see where you are and visualize where you are going. Through
planning you will begin to enjoy the success you desire in life because you
will be ready to make wise decisions when the opportunities come.
Are
you ready for the future, for opportunities, for problems or challenges, or for
a major change in your life? The time to get ready is now! So as you grab that
pen & paper, keep this thought in mind:

Planning Prevents Poor Performance"
