Food for Thought


  • The best definition of integrity: Doing the right thing, even when no one is watching.

  • Work is like a rock, paper, scissors game. There is no long-term winning play. You have to keep reinventing yourself just to stay employed.

  • Be thankful for every success, and learn from your failures.

  • You create your future with every decision you make or decide not to make.

  • Your money, or lack of it, only shows how much attention you have put on creating an exchange for what you produce.

    Figure out the exchange, then produce what is wanted.


  • The glass of life is neither half full or half empty. It is what you make of it, so don't claim that your glass is empty and has a dead bug in it.

  • Change someone's life. Encourage them to start a blog.

  • Secondhand opinions are not facts.

    Check the original source and be sure.

  • Keep your options open.
    One decision and you can change your life.
    It's that easy.

  • You cannot waste your working life waiting for your boss to become an enlightened manager.

  • You are the only one who can change your life.

    You must accept that responsibility to achieve freedom.

  • Integrity is doing the right thing, even when no one is looking.

    It is no more complicated than that.

  • Success comes from good service delivered with warmth and grace.

    Easy to say - hard to accomplish, especially if you are insufficiently trained.

  • Good managers are few and far between.

    Let them know how much you appreciate them.

  • WHINING:
    a dead giveaway that the person doing the whining has not taken responsibility for his or her actions.


  • Happiness comes to those who manage their lives well

    Your emotional well-being is priceless.

    Don't throw it away for mere money


  • You are

    far more capable than

    you let yourself believe.


  • We need to learn from

    the past, not live in it.


  • Every blogger who writes

    a post about a buying

    experience helps create a

    database that can change

    the future of commerce.


  • Your money, or lack of it,

    only shows how much

    attention you have put on

    creating an exchange for

    what you produce.

TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR LIFE!

The only person who can turn your life  your career around is reading this right now. It is time to seize the moment and do yourself a favor.

You have the opportunity to learn from the serious mistakes that I and others made because we trusted our management to look after our interests. This book, Danger Quicksand - Have A Nice Day, will open your eyes and prepare you to look out for your OWN interests!

Danger_quicksand_front_cover_email If you are a hard working team member and feel like the trap door is about to fall out from under you any moment, you need to read this book. There are several sections devoted to showing you the signs of a company in trouble and what you can do to avoid going down with the ship.

I've spent 50 years in the high tech arena and have worked for 25 different companies, so I have intimate knowledge of the fragility of corporate culture and how a healthy corporate culture can sicken and die almost overnight.

Management practices have changed over the years and you can no longer expect employment stability. This is the 21st century and companies are managing from quarter to quarter. You can do a great job and be promoted and still be on the streets in 90 days if the company is not keeping up with competition. I have written a book to level the playing field for employees at any level. You owe it to yourself and your family to read this book and prepare yourself for long-term employment stability.
