Welcome To 2013!

Happy New Year, 2013! My wish for 2013 is for it to be a ‘boring’ news year. I hope that the biggest news stories for 2013 are that unemployment is at an all time low, world-wide business is booming, the environment is getting cleaner, medicine is uncovering miracle cures, and all wars have ended. This might not be realistic, but as John Lennon said, “Imagine”.

We may not individually have the power to make any of the above happen, but we can work on making our own lives and the lives of those we love better. If we make 2013 the year that we ‘give just a little bit more’.

Start with giving just a little more effort at work. Double check your e-mails before you hit send, re-read your letters and documents before you print them. Stay just 10 minutes longer at the end of the day and/or come in just 10 minutes earlier to get just a little more accomplished. It doesn’t sound like much, but if everyone did just a little bit more, the collective results would make a big difference to your company. The success of your company directly affects your ability to be gainfully employed and support yourself and your family.
