Favorite Quotes:
“To pay attention, this is our endless and proper work” --Mary Oliver

"Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?” --Mary Oliver

"At the end of the day, we must look back and see if the wake of our work is profitable or not. If it isn't, it is time to ask ourselves some hard questions. The wake is the results we leave behind. And the wake doesn't lie and it doesn't care about excuses. It is what it is. No matter what we try to do to explain why, or to justify what the wake is, it still remains. It is what we leave behind and is our record.

On the other side of the wake are the relationships. Just as we leave the effects of our work behind in results, we leave the effects of our interactions with people behind in their hearts, minds, and souls. We leave a wake of people behind us as we move through their lives and their organizations. We leave a wake behind as we move through the lives of clients and partners. We leave a wake behind as we move through our relationships with vendors and other alliances, as well as our entire industry. So, we must look out over the transom and ask ourselves, 'What does that wake look like?'" ~Henry Cloud, Integrity--The courage to meet the demands of reality: How six essential qualities determine your success in business
