W.B. Yeats said, "I have spread my dreams beneath your feet. Tread softly because you tread on my dreams."
This made me look twice before racing around the villa where my office is. But also made me think are my dreams a welcoming mat to relating to me?
Let me refresh you by diverting you from work for a minute and getting your thoughts on this here.

Todays BOOST to survive the day
Thomas Alva Edison said, "I am not discouraged, because every wrong attempt discarded is another step forward."
Here was a guy who made approximately 10,000 attempts to develop a longer burning light bulb. Make a few more attempts and while you do remember Edison would have made 9,997 more to get to his goal.

Todays BOOST to survive the day
Anne Sullivan said, "People seldom see the halting and painful steps by which the most insignificant success is achieved."
In business or sport or life when the way becomes painful and halting steps instead of giant leaps and you keep going, keep pushing, instead of giving up, you are successful by any measure.
-- Anne Sullivan was Helen Keller's teacher.

James Yorke said, "The most successful people are those who are good at plan B."
In times like we are experiencing now it's good to have a Plan B, C and and maybe a D. What's yours?

Ralph Waldo Emerson said, "People seem not to see that their opinion of the world is also a confession of character."
What is your opinion of the world saying about you right now?
Recession or Opportunity? Your opinion makes a difference.
Have a great afternoon.

Jimmy Johnson said, "The difference between ordinary and extraordinary is that little extra."
What little bit extra can you do today to make it an extra-ordinary day?
100m longer on your walk, 25m on your swim, one more phone call or a smile when you're about to give in will do it. Keep it simple.

Todays BOOST + Lisa Tamati
Jack Dempsey said, "A champion is someone who gets up, even when he can't."
When you're out there getting knocked back or down the champion in you will help you get back up. Let them and nothing can stop you.
Have a great afternoon.
