Fifty-two Keys for Living, Loving and Working

Be alert

Don’t get caught napping. There are always new ideas, new approaches, and new opportunities. It requires an active wide awake mind to catch them. Choose an attitude of alertness. Be ready for what is and what comes next. Be receptive. Remain expectant. Don’t automatically shut out the unfamiliar. Neither fall for every new fad. “When you wake up, get up. When you get up, wake up.”

Be a Magnet for New Ideas

Be a magnet for new ideas. Don’t demean an idea or an approach because it hasn’t been tried before. Who knows? It may be great. If not, so what? What have you lost? At least you know one more thing that doesn’t work. It is an amazing phenomenon; those who are open to new ideas somehow get more new ideas. They become attractors for new ideas. Many say, if it isn’t broke don’t fix it. Just because it isn’t broken doesn’t mean that it can’t be improved. Don’t close off the possibilities. “What if,” can be your best friend. Never be content with the status quo.
