Today's quote was submitted by David

Steve Jobs said "Death is very likely the single best invention of life. It's life's change agent; it clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now, the new is you. But, someday, not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it's quite true. Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life." What an amazing quote. I recently watched a video of Steve Jobs talking about when he was 12 years old. He called the home of the founder of Hewlett-Packard and asked for some spare computer parts. He got the parts, he also got a job working for Hewlett-Packard and that absolutely helped him get his start! Don't be afraid to make the call and ASK! Live YOUR life!

Today's thought was submitted by Tom

We often start with a quote, but today it's more of a thought. Titled... WHAT IS MARKETING? If the circus is coming to town and you put up a poster, that’s ADVERTISING. If you put the poster on the back of an elephant and walk them through town, that’s PROMOTION. If you walk the elephant through the Mayor’s flower bed and the local radio station airs a story about it, that’s PUBLICITY. If you can get the Mayor to laugh about it, that’s PUBLIC RELATIONS. If you tell people about the various entertainment booths, the fun they are going to have, and answer all their questions, that’s SALES. And if you planned the entire thing, that’s MARKETING! I love that. As a guy who works in marketing... I agree wholeheartedly with this thought!

Sir Winston Churchill said “We contend that for a nation to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself by the handles.” what a great quote. That would be an impossible way to lift oneself up! OK... one last quote from Churchill... and I’m an American but this is one of the funniest quotes from Churchill “We can always count on the Americans to do the right thing, after they have exhausted all the other possibilities.” OK, that's funny... I don't care who you are! We still live up to that today! I want to say thank you to Paul for sending me whole page of Churchill's quotes. That was fun! I'm open to doing more of these if YOU have some favorite quotes from someone!

Today's quote was submitted by Paul

Sir Winston Churchill said “Many forms of government have been tried in this world of sin and woe. No one pretends democracy is perfect or all wise. Indeed, it has been said that democracy is the worst form of government, except for all those others that have been tried from time to time.” what a great quote... I have more... like... “Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy.”... Churchill also said “A lie gets half way around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.”.... I like that one too! I had a whole page of quotes from Sir Winston Churchill shared with me, so I'm going to have a few more for you this week. I like the humor and wit of Winston Churchill.

Sir Winston Churchill said “Tact is the ability to tell someone to go to hell in such a way that they look forward to it.” I love that. I have several more quotes here from Churchill... like “When the eagles go silent, the parrots begin to jabber.”.... nice.... and “Everyone is in favor of free speech. Hardly a day passes without its being extolled, but some people’s idea of it is that they are free to say what they like, but if anyone else says anything back, that is an outrage.” and one more for today “Show me a young Conservative and I’ll and I’ll you someone with a heart of stone.. Show me an old Liberal and I will show you someone with no brains.” I'll share more fun quotes from Sir Winston Churchill.
