BEGIN WITH THE END IN MIND! (Stephen covey!)
Ah, -had the recent experience of reading a Stephen covey quote at work.. Mentioned to a co-worker that I had met him..have a personally inscribed book: 7 habits of highly effective people. It is one of the books that helped me get through college. I kept a picture of a person wearing a graduation cap and gown on my wall... " begin with the end in mind". Eventually earned my b.a. In mass comm, so.. Safe to say his advice was helpful. But I didn't limit his advice to my academic or professional life. Honey.. I brought it write in my bedroom too; applied it to my sex life: begin with the end in mind. "go for a tie! Tie and you win!" So anyway.. I didn't share all that with my co-worker, it just kind of floated through my mind. My co-worker had never heard of Stephen covey or the 7 habits book.. So I hopped on Wikipedia to show a picture.. Was shocked to learn he died last month. Feel grateful I had a chance to meet him.. To read his leadership books.. And not sure.. But it seems like he once gave a presentation at stoneridge (?). In any case.. Another beautiful legacy. "thank you Stephen covey and God bless..."
