“When your manager is conducting a meeting or conference call and presents an idea or goal, they’re looking for commitment to tackle the task. If you start listing all of the reasons why it won’t work or argue unimportant details, your boss will see your effort as adversarial. You become a roadblock preventing everyone in the group from moving forward.... If you have a small concern or issue you want heard, save it for a personal moment later.”
Ronald Harris, Concepts of Managing: A Road Map for Avoiding Career Hazards

Sheryl Lister
“Over 15 years ago we pledged our Sisterhood. And promised we would always be there for each other. Today, we renew that commitment. Diane continued. To accept each other with all our flaws. Give encouragement and hope support each other through the laughter and tears. To listen with an attentive ear and kick each other's butts into gear when needed. And to celebrate the beauty and joy of this bond. Forever. [...] This is not goodbye. Just see you later. Until we meet again. To friendship, sisterhood, and living life with no reservations.
The sun was sitting on this chapter of their lives but tomorrow the sun would rise again and bring new life.”

Hope, on the other hand, is a more active and radical ideal that recognizes the real possibility of failure, yet at the same time holds on to the prospect of success despite the odds, driven by a deep commitment to an outcome we value.”

Quinn shook his head.

"Divorced?"

"Once. A long time ago."

So long ago, the brief attempt at marriage seemed more like a half-remembered bad dream than a memory. Bringing it up was like kicking a pile of ashes, stirring old flecks of emotional debris inside him-feelings of frustration and failure and regret that had long since gone cold.”

“Sean was a nice enough guy, but I had known their marriage was based more on practical considerations than commitment. They both wanted a family.

Grab the chance
or let it go by.

Big. Little. Over and over.
And all the little choices
make a life.”
