REWORK – Insights Part #1 – Takedowns, Go and Progress
September 26, 2011
Rita Mae Brown said that “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” If you truly want to improve your business, you must open your mind to new ideas and different ways of doing things.
First, I should also state that the insights shared here are copyright Jason Fried & David Heinmeier, the co-authors of REWORK and the founders of 37 Signals.
I got REWORK from a team member shortly before he transitioned to a new firm. Thank you, Josiah! I should be the first to say, however, that I don’t agree with everything in the book.
Why Should You Point Your Compass North?
September 1, 2011Have you ever felt like you don’t know which way is up in life? Do you feel lost, and wish you knew which way to go next? If so, keep reading…
When you bring your dreams before God and truly desire His help, you have access to the heavenly Father. His compass will always point northward.
With God, you can live with purpose instead of being swayed by emotions and circumstance. If you let yourself be swayed by circumstance, you will find the turbulent winds of life blowing you to and fro. But when you seek God’s input, even though the winds may blow, your compass will only ever point one direction: north. I can personally testify to that. Beauty in daily living is harvested when you fix your eyes due north. Following God will help you navigate life.
