Fulfilling Your Potential
Posted by admin in Fulfillment on June 20th, 2009
I recently read the following quote from George Bernard Shaw and was blown away
“This is the true joy of life, the being used up for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one; being a force of nature instead of a feverish, selfish little clot of ailments and grievances, complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy”
Wow, very powerful words that I suspect are even more relevant in our society then when they were written.
The comment from George Bernard Shaw should inspire all readers to fulfill their potential and stop worrying about who moved your cheese.
Each person on this earth has the basis to achieve great things and it really comes down to the decisions we make.
Why is it that some of us are more consumed with what the world owes us or the chip on our shoulder rather then really making a difference? Is it nature or nurture? Is it the influence of our parents or our spouse? I suspect it is a combination of all these things but at the end of the day the ball is in your court.
It is up to you to decide what to do with that ball and the difference you will make in the lives of those around you.

Starbucks – Something Positive in our Lives
Posted by admin in Uncategorized on June 20th, 2009
Does Starbucks make a difference in your life?
Where else can you go and have a great cup of coffee, work on your laptop and enjoy the atmosphere?
Given the fact that Starbucks has not done as well financially in the past year as previously seems to give negative people something to talk and write about.
There is nothing wrong with $4 Latte and no reason to give them up just because some folks feel that it is excessive.
Starbucks is not just about the coffee.
It is about the experience and sometimes it is a place that just makes you feel good.
The doomsayers may take delight in the recent challenges that Starbucks has faced but Starbucks will persist and prosper.
When did you last to go a McDonalds, Dunkin Donuts or Tim Horton’s for a coffee because it made you feel good?
I came into my local Starbucks today to write my blog and I do so for a reason. I could easily write this blog at the office or at home but I do not since the Starbucks experience inspires me.
Let’s be positive and enjoy the finer things in life.
