“I knew that if I failed, I wouldn’t regret that.  But I knew the one thing I might regret is not trying.”  Jeff Bezos If Bezos didn’t try to launch Amazon.com in 1995, he wouldn’t have been named the world’s wealthiest individual by Forbes in 2021.  M-Works Search Engineering “All-Stars” try as well.  Many times…

“The first one gets the oyster, the second gets the shell.”  -Andrew Carnegie This quote jumped out when I was reviewing quotes last weekend.  In a nutshell, or oyster shell, it’s Andrew Carnegie’s take on “the early bird gets the worm adage.” No different from oysters or birds, the top sales professionals typically get the orders. …

“Even if you are on the right track, you’ll get run over if you just sit there.”  Will Rogers In other words, if you’re not moving forward, you’re moving backwards while you’re getting run over.  I picked this quote from Will Rogers for this week because it speaks to the Kaizen philosophy of continuous improvement. …
