Misery, Complaining and the BIG 10

  Bought a cool little mini-book the other day when I was traveling called “HOW TO BE TOTALLY MISERABLE”  author John Bytheway  I grabbed it because I am thinking about doing another illustrated book on the same subject and thought it would be great research - it was!  Here are a couple quotes from it.  

Fear is that little dark room where negatives are developed. - Michael Pritchard  

Everyone can be discontented if they ignore their blessings and look only at their burdens. ~ Thomas S. Monson

Generally speaking, the most miserable people I know are those who are obsessed with themselves; the happiest people I know are those who lose themselves in the service of others…By and large, I have come to see that if we complain about life, it is because we are thinking only of ourselves.  - Gordon B. Hinkley

WARNING - what follows could be considered promotional!  

For the cost of sending just 2 people away to training you could have Kirk Weisler come and spend an entire day training your entire staff!  WOW, now that just makes CENT$!  But would he be any good?  Would he have lasting impact? Well just read what people are saying - By reading below or clicking HERE - or - HERE.  

 Kirk, I intrduced myself to you at the Big Ten Rec Sports Conference, but felt    compelled to send you a note of thanks for your wonderful speaking on leadership. I sincerely believe that your words and suggestions for books will make me a better person with my co-workers, but most importantly with my own wife and family.  Your message came at a very unique time for me, and it hit home in many areas.  Again, thank you for what you do.

Don’t Delay Book Kirk Today…. he has only 20 open training dates remaing for 2009.

    Okay, I have to ask - how much does it cost to have you come and do a half day of training? Let me know, we might be able to work something out.

    Thanks for the T4D ideas. As always, they get me going in the right direction.
