TOPIC: F's, C's and A's
Recently, a college professor changed his grading system and
decided to only issue the following grades: A, C and F. His
grading standard for his students can also be applied to our
jobs, relationships and family
An "A" is given to people who do more than is expected and give
their best even when it's not expected.
A "C" is given to people who just show up and wait for the
paycheck on Friday.
"F" is for those people waiting to get fired.
So what does it take to be an "A"??? I think we'd all
agree that the basketball player Michael Jordan is an "A".
Do we all have Jordan's physical strength and skill's. . . no.
But could you instantly have his attitude and put out the effort
he puts out? ? ? The answer is, of course, yes. And if you
did that, you'd instantly get an "A" in basketball.
Remember, it doesn't take "skill" to be an "A"; people who are
at this level are there because of their effort and attitude.
So are you a "C", "F" or an "A". There's no reason not to be
an "A", its simply an matter of choice and attitude.
To join Success On Line (at no cost ever!) send an
email to patlav@epix.net and type subscribe in the body
of the letter.
