TGIF – Positive Change By Doing Less

January 6, 2012 by Bill Bradley

As the week winds down, we wind down with some tidbits for your information, education, health, and enjoyment.

Quotes of the Week: Adults are always asking little kids what they want to be when they grow up because they’re looking for ideas.  Paula Poundstone

If you don’t like your job you don’t strike.  You just go in every day and do it really half-assed.  That’s the American way.  Homer Simpson, The Simpsons

Humor Break: Work smarter, not harder, and be careful of your speling.

If a trainstation is where the train stops, what’s a workstation?

Stat of the Week: Five Things You Should Stop Doing in 2012.  Continuing with the positive change theme from Wednesday post, here are five suggestions that will make life more manageable.  One is to stop reading annoying things … like this post.  The other four suggestions are excellent, especially for CrazyBusy people.

Action Tip: Ask yourself if any of these five suggestions “speak to you”.  If so, what can you do about it/them?

Volunteering: No specific suggestions this week.  This is your planning week.  This is the week to set your personal and professional goals for the year.  As you plan, find and commit to some form of volunteering.  It will enrich your life.  For sure!  For sure!
