“Some roads lead on, from what you know… to what you need to find.” Bill McKay
Let me try something different: several of this week’s ‘quotes’ will actually be some interesting lyrics from songwriters I admire. Today’s talks about being bold enough to learn new things and see life differently: whether working alone or being part of a team, we all need to be open to upgrading our skills and updating our moves. Complacency can quickly take hold if we get comfortable with our habits: carelessly thinking we always know what’s needed can present opportunities for our competition. Not that everything needs to be changed, but those things that do absolutely should; remember to stay focused because just because you can doesn’t always mean you should. Leaders can always command, but the most effective ones also listen; superstars can always perform, but the good ones also bring out the best in others; and top performers can always get the work done, but the great ones also ‘up’ everyone’s performance. Start with what you know and look for what you need to improve your knowledge, skills and abilities today.
“Some Roads Lead On” is a song written by Bill McKay and recorded by American Bluegrass Band Della Mae
