I found a great quote for today's post. It is Bill Gates; who has become a household name, an icon, and one of the most wealthy men in the world. I am sure that we all know how he got his start, but if you don't look it up. His story is one that the person starts with an idea and very little beyond that. I personally believe; that is where the best things come from. In this quote he is speaking about companies, but I am going to reference that to all of us as individuals. The quote reads:
"The complacent company (IE individual), is a dead company (IE. individual). Success today requires the agility and drive to constantly rethink, reinvigorate, react, and reinvent". Bill Gates, Chairman, Microsoft
My thoughts with this are simply this; if we become complacent at life, we stop living and actually start dying. We have all seen this in individuals, and perhaps within ourselves at times. Little by little life stops being as enjoyable and then we have very little to be happy about. That being said, do the things that you enjoy! As a married couple Chandi and I are constantly trying to balance work, kids, community, play, etc. There are certain things that as an individual she needs and certain things that I need. Work on your needs and once they are taken care of, go after your wants. To often we chase our wants, and our needs take a back seat. Keep a good perspective and do what you enjoy.
