Today we’ll have a look at ‘criticism’ – I always try to refrain from being critical when my wife is doing something I don’t want to do! Here’s a cartoon that was born out of a recent decorating project – along with a few of my favourite quotes…
Sandwich every bit of criticism between two thick layers of praise. ~ Mary Kay Ash
Any fool can criticize, condemn and complain.. and most fools do.~ Dale Carnegie
Don’t let anyone say you can’t do it. ~ John IlhanAnd my favourite…Never criticize your spouse’s faults; if it weren’t for them, your mate might have found someone better than you! ~ Jay Trachman
I have quite a few obstacles that are causing me some grief at the moment. So instead of buckling it to them I decided face them head on. Here’s a few quotes that helped me get my head around them…
Most of our obstacles would melt away if, instead of cowering before them, we should make up our minds to walk boldly through them. – Orison Swett Marden
Overcoming Obstacles!
Press on. Obstacles are seldom the same size tomorrow as they are today.- Robert H. Schuller
Life’s up and downs provide windows of opportunity to determine your values and goals. Think of using all obstacles as stepping stones to build the life you want. – Marsha Sinetar
If you find a path with no obstacles, it probably doesn’t lead anywhere.- Frank A. Clark
It still holds true that man is most uniquely human when he turns obstacles into opportunities. – Eric Hoffer
History has demonstrated that the most notable winners usually encountered heartbreaking obstacles before they triumphed. They won because they refused to become discouraged by their defeats.- B. C. Forbes
Cartoon to illustrate some of Vince Lombardi’s inspirational quotes!
Here’s some of my favorite VL quotes about Winning, Winners…
***Winning is not a sometime thing; it’s an all time thing. You don’t win once in a while, you don’t do things right once in a while, you do them right all the time. Winning is habit. Unfortunately, so is losing.
Win Win Win!
***We would accomplish many more things if we did not think of them as impossible.
***Winning isn’t everything, but the will to win is everything.
***People who work together will win, whether it be against complex football defenses, or the problems of modern society.
***The price of success is hard work, dedication to the job at hand, and the determination that whether we win or lose, we have applied the best of ourselves to the task at hand.
When commissioning cartoons… Pick TWO of the three options!
Good+Fast = Expensive Choose this and I’ll postpone every other project on my drawing board, my round of golf or give up my footy match ticket and work day and night to get your job done. It WILL NOT BE CHEAP though!
Good+Cheap = Slow Choose good and cheap and I’ll still do a great job at a discounted price. But you’ll have to be patient while I fit you in after my higher paying clients, updating my web site, going down the gym, my footy matches, rounds of golf and liquid lunches!
Fast+Cheap = Inferior Choose this option at your peril. It will still be delivered on time but it will be inferior, as many corners as possible will be cut. You know the saying ‘You get what you pay for!’ The least favorable option in my opinion!
