“Sometimes change comes not in the first round, but at the second, third or fourth. Change starts with one person questioning, challenging, speaking up and doing something to make a difference.

“I have had the rich satisfaction of knowing and working with many openly gay and lesbian Americans, and I have come to realize that "gay" is an artificial category when it comes to measuring a man or woman's on-the-job performance or commitment to shared goals. It says little about the person. Our differences and prejudices pale next to our historic challenge.” MenLittlesPersonsJobsNextGoalRealizingChallengesDifferencesKnowingRichGayCommitmentPerformancesPrejudiceSatisfactionCategoriesArtificialPaleHistoricMeasuring Author:Alan K.

“There are advantages to being the chairman. One of my favorite perks was picking out an issue and doing what I called a "deep dive." It's spotting a challenge where you think you can make a difference - one that looks like it would be fun - and then throwing the weight of your position behind it. Some might justifiably call it "meddling." I've often done this just about everywhere in the company.” ThinkingLooksDoneMightWould BeFunChallengesDifferencesBehindsCompanyIssuesPositionAdvantageWeightMy FavoriteMaking A DifferenceThrowingChairmanPerksMeddlingYou Can Make A Difference Author:Jack Welch

“We don't always know the details of our future. We do not know what lies ahead. We live in a time of uncertainty. We are surrounded by challenges on all sides. Occasionally discouragement may sneak in to our day; frustration may invite itself into our thinking; doubt might enter about the value of our work. In these dark moments Satan whispers in our ears that we will never be able to succeed, that the price isn't work the effort, and that our small part will never make a difference.

“Love is the expansion of two natures in such fashion that each include the other, each is enriched by the other. Love is an echo in the feelings of a unity subsisting between two persons which is founded both on likeness and on complementary differences. Without the likeness there would be no attraction; without the challenge of the complementary differences there could not be the closer interweaving and the inextinguishable mutual interest which is the characteristic of all deeper relationships.” PersonsTwoFeelingsWould BeInterestChallengesDifferencesLove IsFashionUnityDeeperAttractionCharacteristicsMutualEchoesExpansionComplementaryMutual Interest Author:Felix Adler
