Sayers and Doers

I like it when people do more over what they say. They don’t wait for “IT” to happen, them make “IT” happen. They don’t announce what they are doing, they roll up their sleeves, get in there and do it. They don’t call a meeting to vote on what needs to happen, they do what needs to happen and have a meeting to discuss the outcomes what they learned when they did it. Doers take the risk and let the chips fall where they may, and wherever they do, they pick them back up and start all over again. Want

Handling Traffic

When a light goes down at an intersection, one of two things will occur. Either the system’s back-up response will kick in that everyone knows and understands or a new response will take shape.

Whether you get there is immaterial, it’s that you want to learn and that you are trying. Want more? Check out my book Code Your Way Up – available as an eBook or Paperback on Amazon (CAN and US).
