Good plan today

Cartoon about business planning - 'better a good plan today than a perfect one tomorrow'

good plan today

There is a short distance between perfection and prevarication.  Between delaying a good plan for a marginally better one too late.   The best planners tread the line between perfection and timeliness but always deliver the best possible plan at exactly the right time.

Taking care of the donkey

Cartoon about marriage 'when you are my prince and I am your princess, who will take care of the Donkey'

Short-term romance is fine; we can throw all our energy at it without being too concerned about the responsibilities, intensities, frustrations, aspirations, commitments, consequences and enrichments of long-term love.

Monkeys in suits

Cartoon stating 'you can dress a monkey in a business suit, but all you get is a well dressed monkey'

monkeys in suits

They are out there, but they don’t know who they are.  Being oblivious to much of what goes on around them and to the impact of their wayward behaviour and habits which is key to recognising the breed.  Those that I have met have been both engaging and entertaining.  Long live the corporate maverick!

Something to say?

Cartoon stating 'some people talk when they have something to say. Others when they have to say something.

something to say?

When it comes to communicating complex ideas and concepts, they say you should imagine you are talking to someone from another planet and explain your subject clearly, concisely and in simple terms.   It is unwise to assume that people (and aliens) have the knowledge and understanding to grasp what the heck you are rabbiting on about.

Golden cage

Cartoon about relationships stating if your heart is like a golden cage with an open door, maybe a beautiful bird will see it and move in.

golden cage

For every singing bird that seeks a place in your heart, a dozen crows with bad attitudes are looking for a quick fix.  I guess that’s the dilemma.  So open your heart just wide enough for singing birds to squeeze in and keep a baseball bat for the crows you meet.

Your star

Cartoon with sign saying follow your own star

your star

We spend our early years gazing at the stars and wondering which to follow.  Then at some point one star seems to shine extra bright; fame, love, fortune, tinker, tailor, soldier, spy – our destiny awaits.
Then the years roll on and other stars catch our eye and we wonder if we followed the wrong star and head off to a new cosmos.
If you are heading to a new cosmos, good luck!
