The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing

Stephen Covey

Larry Winget is plainspoken.  On his ‘It’s a damn shame tour’ he has some interesting observations:

“It’s a damn shame when people think that good thoughts are more important than hard work; when meditation has become more highly regarded than action; and when yoga classes are full and math classes are empty.

It’s a damn shame that the guy who screams the loudest is considered the winner of an argument instead of the guy with the smartest, most well-thought out, logical point of view.

It’s a damn shame that America has become the land of scream now, think and do your research later, if ever.

It’s a damn shame when people care more about which political party is proposing an idea than whether it is a good idea.

It’s a damn shame that our country has become so full of hate, paranoia and meanness.”

To read the rest, Larry Winget

 It is no longer good enough to cry peace. We must act peace, live peace, and live in peace.
