Today was mostly a travel day. Tough to keep on top of my emails and calls. I did manage to squeeze in a 5 mile run though so I guess I must not be too swamped.
I had a nice email from a SYNNEX customer today saying our service was great. Was not even addressed to me - it was to one of the sales reps. Although it was a little thing - it made my day. I wonder what little things you (or I) might be able to do to make someones' day.
And an inspirational quote for the day from Thomas A. Edison:
"If we did all the things we are capable of doing, we would literally astound ourselves"
I take this as a challenge and intend to live up more to my capability.
I read an interesting blurb on the way that people use the word "swamped". The author felt it had an implied sense of defeat, helplessness and complaint. Ever since then, I've avoided it. As Anthony Robbins would say, don't make things worse than they are.

ReplyDeleteI just wanted to tell you I enjoy reading your blog. You won't remember me but I remember you from Bimini, you were quite inspirational then too.
