Quote of the Week for the End of Heart Month
For the first week of American Heart Month, our featured quote was: “Energy flows where attention goes“. In week #2, Anne Frank reminded us that we didn’t need to “wait a single moment before starting to improve the world“. In week #3, George Washington reminded us that it is much easier to prevent an enemy from posting themselves than to dislodge them.
And in the fourth and final week of American Heart Month, our quote is:
Of course, we can’t leave our hearts at home.
But at many offices, hearts do seem missing in action. Perhaps the atmosphere steals or steels them. Read more

Quote of the Week for Presidents Day
For the first week of American Heart Month, our featured quote was: “Energy flows where attention goes“.
And in week #2, we were reminded by Anne Frank that we didn’t need to “wait a single moment before starting to improve the world“.
So here we are at the start of week #3….on Presidents Day, the day on which we celebrate the birthday of America’s first President, George Washington . He was also a farmer and a patriot. An idea man. A creator. A man who did much to improve the world. And a man who left behind many wise words, such as these.
As leaders of businesses and organizations, who are our “enemies”? Read more

Quote of the Week on Improving the World
In celebration of American Heart Month, last week’s quote was: “Energy flows where attention goes” and we are still paying attention to it.
So much to do. So much we could do. Where do we start?
The weight of the world is on our shoulders. Hard on our backs, our heads and our hearts.
Perhaps this week’s quote will help break the cycle.
Imagine what it was like for 13 year old Anne Frank…hiding out from the Germans for two years and then living and dying in a German concentration camp at the age of 15.

Quote of the Week for Heart Month
February is American Heart Month, declared as a reminder to take care of the health of our hearts. Three primary ways to do this: diet, exercise, stress management and regular medical check-ups.
With the latter in mind, we selected an ancient Hawaiian huna (or “secret”) of life as our Leadership Quote of the Week: Energy flows where attention goes.
What are you paying attention to? Read more

Quote of the Week for Groundhog Day*
Thanks again and again to longtime Business Class subscriber, Mark Young at Baby Boomer Talk Online , for sharing this quote a year and a half ago. Since then it has been the #1 Quote of the Week (in terms of traffic) and several readers have told me about the impact it has had on them and their teammates. It has been a real catalyst for change for many. Now is a good time to feature it again for reasons indicated in the title, added artwork and comments below.
Most of us have something hidden in the shadows somewhere. Something we wish we could do over. Something that is making us or someone on our team go underground. Or cower in a corner a bit. Keeping us – and them - from really shining the way that we and they could.
It could be a botched presentation. Or conversation. Or relationship. Or deadline. Or a missed goal. Or wayward resolution.
And speaking of resolutions… Read more

Quote of the Week: On Paths & Trails
Quote of the Week subscriber, Kathy Peppers is the Business Office Manager at Lake Martin Community Hospital in Dadeville, Alabama. She hangs many of the quotes she receives from us outside the door of her office. People stop to read them. People seem to learn from them. Some people even act differently – in a positive way. And other people have noticed the difference.
Another sign of impact and engagement… one of Kathy’s team members brought in a quote she had received from a friend. Kathy did two things. She posted the quote on her wall and she sent it to me.
Thank you, Kathy. I was thrilled to receive it. And as it turns out, it’s a perfect segue from last week’s Quote of the Week for MLK Day. Dr. King didn’t like the path we were on – didn’t like where it was leading. He had a dream of something different and better. And so he got off the path. And left a trail.
There are certainly times that it is more efficient, more logical to follow a path that’s already in place. And then there are other times….
When do you think it’s a good idea to get off the current path to forge a new trail?
The paths you are on right now…which ones should you stay on? Which ones should you leave?
Tomorrow we will post a few ideas on this in: “10 Times To Get Off the Path”.
Meanwhile – use the above quote as background or wallpaper for your computer with just three clicks.
