Getting the right people in the right jobs is a lot more important than developing a strategy.
Crises, reversals, obstacles - these are always encountered by all upper-management employees during their careers. The value of a man under such circumstances is not dependent only on the way in which he confronts adversity, but also in his ability to turn adversity to his own advantage.
The minute a man finds himself running around in a circle and not getting anywhere, he should set some definite point which he desires to reach, and then make everything he does assist him along to that end. When he has gained this point, he should then set another one higher up, and so on until his ultimate goal is reached
Remember happiness doesn't depend upon who you are or what you have; it depends solely on what you think.
