I know I’m sometimes guilty of seeing the PROBLEM and not past it to see the SOLUTION!
There’s always a solution behind every PROBLEM! You just have to look through it!
It is better to laugh about your problems than to cry about them. It’s not that I’m so smart, it’s just that I stay with problems longer.
Albert Einstein
To solve any problem, here are three questions to ask yourself: First, what could I do? Second, what could I read? And third, who could I ask?
Jim Rohn
Become a possibilitarian. No matter how dark things seem to be or actually are, raise your sights and see possibilities – always see them for they’re always there.
Norman Vincent Peale
There is always something you can do about any problem; even it if is just changing your perspective on how you feel about the problem.
David DeNotaris
Believe it is possible to solve your problem. Tremendous things happen to the believer. So believe the answer will come. It will.
Norman Vincent Peale
While on the subject of COMFORT ZONES – here’s a poem that
inspired this cartoon…
My Comfort Zone – A Poem Author Unknown I used to have a comfort zone where I knew I wouldn’t fail. The same four walls and busywork were really more like jail. I longed so much to do the things I’d never done before, But stayed inside my comfort zone and paced the same old floor. I said it didn’t matter that I wasn’t doing much. I said I didn’t care for things like commission checks and such. I claimed to be so busy with the things inside the zone, But deep inside I longed for something special of my own. I couldn’t let my life go by just watching others win. I held my breath; I stepped outside and let the change begin. I took a step and with new strength I’d never felt before, I kissed my comfort zone goodbye and closed and locked the door. If you’re in a comfort zone, afraid to venture out, Remember that all winners were at one time filled with doubt. A step or two and words of praise can make your dreams come true.
Reach for your future with a smile; success is there for you!

There are no traffic jams in the extra mile. Unknown
No one ever attains very eminent success by simply doing what is required of him; it is the amount and excellence of what is over and above the required that determines the greatness of ultimate distinction. Charles Francis Adams
Give the world the best that you have, and the best will come back to you. Madeline Bridges

And here are some great ‘customer service’ quotes that you should
REALLY take note on…
"There is only one boss. The customer. And he can fire everybody in the company from the chairman on down, simply by spending his money somewhere else." Sam Walton
"One customer, well taken care of, could be more valuable than $10,000
worth of advertising." Jim Rohn
"Being on par in terms of price and quality only gets you into the game.
Service wins the game."
Tony Alessandra
"Here is a simple but powerful rule – always give people more than what they expect to get."
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!
