It is about getting better...

Tomorrow is All Souls day. As we honor the dead tomorrow, we are reminded how we should live.
Several years ago, I interviewed a scholar whom we sent to a state U on what he would be doing afterwards. He said, he would raise a family, go to church on Sunday and pay his taxes (no need his company accountant would have done this for him) I was utterly disappointed and devastated after spending 6 figures on his free education. All the while I thought that he had leadership, and that he would pay his good fortune forward, ie help other people reap the same benefits as he did.
Steve Jobs said he must view life differently. Avoid being smug Make a dent in the Universe.
I would facilitate a corporate planning for a family owned food company two weeks from now. My biggest apprehension is that for the sake of family unity, the top management would not rock the boat nor go against the wishes of the President (the parents) Or the level of risk taking would be limited. I learned that the VP before shot down two new products. The result of this corporate planning can be worthless too. Steve Jobs was known to have high level of risk taking That is why he failed several times too!
