"If you treat an individual as he is, he will remain as he is.But if you treat him as if he were what he ought to be and could be, he will become what he ought to be and could be."- Goethe

What a world it would be if we treated each person based on the potential we see in them. Is this a little bit overly-optimistic? That just by our believing in someone else they can achieve a higher level? It's not likely that it would be the only factor- But it can certainly be a critical one. To thrive people need an environment that builds them up. One that believes in them, even when they themselves don't always believe. Remember that the next time you talk to someone you manage or mentor. With a little help, what could they be?

Welcome to my new Blog

Hello and Welcome to my new Blogging home on the web.
Yes, I know I've committed something of sin in blogging circles by changing addresses, but it was time to get a fresh start, and maybe go in something of a different direction.
I'll post some of the earlier Blogs I've written that I think will still be pertinent. Check back back again soon!
