“After careful consideration, we have decided that for our next fiscal year, we'll issue guidance on comparable store used unit sales and on earnings per share only for the full fiscal year. We will no longer issue quarterly guidance. This decision reflects our continuing focus on longer-term store, sales, and earnings growth and on return on invested capital, and our recognition that the performance in shorter-term periods can be more volatile than over the longer term. As we report our quarterly results, we plan to comment on how our performance is tracking against our annual guidance.” YearsUsedNextGrowthTermDecisionResultsIssuesFocusPlansShareReturnPeriodsDecidedPerformancesCarefulStoresRecognitionGuidanceReportsConsiderationCommentContinuingUnitsEarningAnnualsTracking Author:Austin Ligon
“Recognition of the modes of existence of technical objects must be the result of philosophic consideration; what philosophy has to achieve in this respect is analogous to what the abolition of slavery achieved in affirming the worth of the individual human being.” HumansPhilosophyIndividualHuman BeingsResultsExistenceAchieveObjectsSlaveryRecognitionConsiderationAbolitionAffirmingPhilosophicAbolition Of Slavery Author:Gilbert Simondon
“In order to settle down in the quiet of our own being we must learn to be detached from the results of our own activity. We must be content to live without watching ourselves live, to work with expecting immediate reward, to love without an instant satisfaction, and to exist without any special recognition. It is only when we are detached from ourselves that we can be at peace with ourselves.” OrderResultsSpecialActivityQuietRewardsSatisfactionRecognitionSettlingInstantExpectingDetachedSettling Down Author:Thomas Merton
“Your Christians, whom one persecutes in vain, have something in them that surpasses the human.

“Very few women have become famous for being who they actually are, nuanced and imperfect. When honesty happens, it's usually couched in self-ridicule or self-help. Dunham doesn't apologize like that-she simply tells her story as if it might be interesting. The result is shocking and radical because it is utterly familiar. Not That Kind of Girl is hilarious, artful, and staggeringly intimate; I read it shivering with recognition.” IfsKindSelfHelpingStoriesMightHappensGirlInterestingResultsSelf HelpHonestyFamiliarRecognitionRadicalIntimateImperfectApologizingShockingRidiculeKind Of Girl Author:Miranda July
“A miracle is a supernatural event, whose antecedent forces are beyond our finite vision, whose design is the display of almighty power for the accomplishment of almighty purposes, and whose immediate result, as regards man, is his recognition of God as the Supreme Ruler of all things, and of His will as the only supreme law.” MenLawPurposeForceResultsVisionEventsDesignAll ThingsMiracleRegardSupremeRecognitionAccomplishmentDisplayRulersAlmightyFinite Author:Abbott Eliot Kittredge
“At the end of the day I'm not racing for recognition, I'm not racing for popularity, that's not who I am. I'm focused on the result and trying to get the best out of myself from a sporting capacity.

“The team you belong to must come ahead of the team you lead: this is putting team results (e.g., organizational needs) ahead of individual agendas (e.g., the team or division you lead, your ego, your need for recognition, your career development, etc.) Confidentiality is respected downward more than it is respected upward. Organizational alignment is a direct result of this hierarchy (if it were the other way around, organizational alignment would be very difficult to achieve).” IfsWayNeedsWould BeIndividualDifficultResultsCareersTeamAchieveBuildingDevelopmentEgoDirectRecognitionEtcAgendasDivisionHierarchyTeam BuildingAlignmentCareer DevelopmentOrganizationalConfidentiality Author:Patrick Lencioni
