Lesson #4: Push Your Limits
Until 1993, the lion’s share of Spielberg’s work was confined to the world of make-believe. He dealt with sharks and aliens but had yet to conquer the difficult genre of serious real-world drama. He wasn’t sure what the results would be, and many doubted his potential to crossover, but he was determined to try nonetheless.

BOOK REVIEW: Why Pride Matters More Than Money: The Power of the World’s Greatest Motivational Force (By Jon R. Katzenbach, Crown Business, 2003, ISBN #0-609--61065-1)
The book's thesis, in a nutshell: an intrinsic feeling of pride based on the relentless pursuit of worthwhile endeavors is a lasting and powerful motivating force. Reveals the powerful connection between employee pride and the effort they expend, even more the case the farther down you go in the hierarchy. Some good business examples and stories are included. Offers a valuable perspective for managers who are wondering how to motivate individual performance in their unit or enterprise.
Pride is a good thing!
Pride is a good thing! Pride seems have a bad press doesn’t it? “Pride- the never failing vice of fools” Alexander Pope “Pride goeth before destruction and an haughty spirit before a fall” Proverbs Although it is known as a Vice, it can be a virtue especially in business. Being proud of the quality of service or product you deliver is not something to be ashamed of, quite the opposite.

Managing Perpetual Workplace Changes
It doesn't matter whether you are an old timer or an amateur in what you do. All that matters in our jungle is to apply the lion-gazelle concept of survival. "Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion, or it will die. Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death. It doesn't matter whether you are a lion or a gazelle; when the sun comes up, you'd better be running."

Facing the Facts about Face in China
In China, the concept "face" influences all levels of society and business. It is similar to the western concept of pride yet different. As a westerner I feel pride once I accomplish something I've been working on, often whether others know of my accomplishment or not. Of course if others acknowledge my achievement, it serves to elevate my feeling of personal satisfaction. On the other hand, "face" is definitely a "public opinion" oriented concept, one that depends upon the respect and acknowledgement of another or others. So it's not so much "what I know about me" as much as it is "what others believe about me."
Three Questions That Can Change Your Life!
Do you remember the movie, "The Wizard of Oz"? Remember the tin man, the lion and the scarecrow and their journey down the yellow brick road, with Dorothy? They were looking for the Wizard of Oz...........we're all looking for something, or someone.
ALWAYS BE A FIRST VERSION OF YOUR SELF.
"If you don't brand yourself, other people will. And I can guarantee you that they won't brand you in the way that you want to be branded."What we are not at all have complete value. I mean weather I am a CEO of the MNC or I do laundry wash of the clothes in a small shop. It has a lesser value. We have to lead our selves with pride even if we do not have any title. We have to live in a day and building our tomorrow on our today with pride is the essence of BRAND YOUR SELF. We have to do our best to prove our worth to the world, everyday. The ever worst situation we have to face or we are at the top of the world. Never stop branding your self. There is just one life for each of us: our own.
Instilling Pride ~ A Key to Eliciting Excellence
Eliciting excellence in others is the essence of leadership, and one of the most effective means of eliciting excellence is to instill a sense of pride in those around us. Instilling pride has a myriad of benefits - quality of work and workmanship improves, creativity and innovation increases, collaboration is facilitated more easily, and people are willing to "go the extra mile" to do their best.
Exploring Inner Space
An ass found a lion's skin, and dressed himself up in it. Then he went about frightening every one he met, for they all took him to be a lion, men and beasts alike, and took to their heels when they saw him coming. Elated by the success of his trick, he loudly brayed in triumph. The fox heard him, and recognized him at once for the ass he was, and said to him, "Oho, my friend, it's you, is it? I, too, should have been afraid if I hadn't hear your voice."
That dog won’t hunt
Here we are at the end of March already. I was talking with a friend the other day about an old farmer’s adage we used to anticipate in March regarding the weather: “In like a lamb, out like a lion.” Or “In like a lion, out like a lamb.” The expectation was that if we had harsh winter weather at the beginning of March we would have mild weather at the end – and vice versa. I have no idea why that is expected but it reminds me of all the little clichés that we accept as reality. As farmers we also used to cite, “Red in the morning, sailors warning; red at night, sailors delight.”
