Success Thought of the Day – 6/6/19

Hard work spotlights the character of people: some turn up their sleeves, some turn up their noses, and some don't turn up at all. -- Sam Ewing

Hard work spotlights the character of people: some turn up their sleeves, some turn up their noses, and some don’t turn up at all.  — Sam Ewing

As a child, one of my favorite cartoons was The Jetsons. I loved the scenes where George would tell his daughter to wash the dishes or vacuum the house.  She would complain as if it was a huge task when all she needed to do was literally push a button and a robot would then do the actual work.

While we are not totally there yet, the definition of “hard work” has changed a lot over the years in many areas with the advent of technology.  Embracing technology is wonderful, but it can never replace a great work ethic.

Have a good one!
