No, that is not a typo, it is the truth.  The old saying “Good things come to those who wait” is bologna.  Anyone who has ever been in a survivor situation, or studied survival will tell you that staying busy is the key.  Things have slowed down at work in the last few weeks.  There are plenty of excuses as to why, some out of my control, but some are well within.  If the team decides to wait for the arrival of the business, we may not survive.  I have begun to put a plan together containing a task list for every employee to chase down some leads.  When the number at the table doesn’t change, but the amount of food being cooked get’s less and less, you grab your knife and fork and fight for every bite.  Today’s business environment, in my industry at least, is in the midst of this very scenario.  So we have our knives and forks and are ready to fight.  So to my competition out there, watch your fingers or you might get bit.  #getbusy #gettowork #nowhining
