30 second Speech by Bryan Dyson (CEO of Coca Cola)

30 second Speech by Bryan Dyson (CEO of Coca Cola)

Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some five balls in the air.

You name them –
1.    Work
2.    Family
3.    Health
4.    Friends
5.    Spirit

And you're keeping all of these in the Air.

You will soon understand that work is a RUBBER BALL. If you drop it, it will bounce back.

But the other four Balls - Family, Health, Friends and Spirit - are made of GLASS.
 
If you drop one of these; they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered.

They will never be the same. You must understand that and make every effort for it.
 
Cheers !!

You must love the process of 'trying' to be successful

A couple of interesting thoughts from Peter Bregman’s original post: How Not Achieving Something Is the Key to Achieving It

 

Most of our jobs hinge on repetition. That's how we become good at anything. The problem is we give up too soon because anything we do repetitively becomes boring.

 

Anyone can do anything. As long as three conditions exist:

·         You want to achieve it

·         You believe you can achieve it

·         You enjoy trying to achieve it

For Friends...

The least that we can do for our friends, is to be generous with our time when they need us...

Its easier not to take responsibility

It's interesting to see that people are much better at putting up with things that happen to them than they are at living with the consequences of a bad choice.
