wise words

Everyone was under tremendous presure in those fast-paced days, yet Ed was always calm and in control. When Ed wasn't out talking with people he could generally be found in his office with his feet up and his eyes closed, contemplating.
As I unloaded my problems with Ed that day I quickly learned his secret:
“Give yourself plenty of time to think … and to reflect on just what it is that really needs to be accomplished. Delegate everything possible, and reserve for yourself only those things where your personal attention is need to move the work ahead.”
(Christian Management Report, Feb 2006, P.32)
