Have You Looked in the Mirror Lately?

I woke up this morning, the same as every morning, and looked in the mirror. The face that stared back at me was not the prettiest thing on the planet, but it held a certain reverence, a regard for all that I stand for. What did YOU see this morning? Ok, so you may ask where I'm going with this? My point is this. When you look in the mirror do you take yourself seriously? I mean really seriously! Here is my rant. I regularly attend HR Networking events and too many times come across my peers that are spineless jelly fish! These are brilliant, well-educated, well-read individuals that don't reflect on the outside the vast amount of knowledge on the inside. Our "kind" is perceived as passive, somewhat nerdy, un-exciting and BORING! There is nothing BORING about what we do! We inspire greatness! We inspire evolution and change through learning! What could be more exciting! Without learning in an organization, there would be no organization. There would be no small businesses, no corporations, no country! Life would not exist as we know it. So, I ask, when are you going to wake up and start taking yourself seriously!!!!!
