Holidaying

So, you know... don't expect much

It’s a holiday here, so this will be a quick edition. I know over the last two weeks of explaining how EVPs are not serving us, I was leading you to a big reveal. And that will happen, but it will happen in January.

Will it be worth the wait? I really do believe so, yes.

For now, here are some odds and ends to distract you from whatever’s happening in your world today.

“When you compete to be the best, you imitate.
When you compete to be unique, you innovate.”
- Peter Thiel

"Things which matter most must never be at the mercy
of things which matter least."
- Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

“The things we fear most in organizations –
fluctuations, disturbances, imbalances – are the primary sources of creativity.”
- Margaret J. Wheatley

“The process you use to get to the future is the future you get.”
- Myron Rogers

“The best way to complain is to make things”
- James Murphy
