Canuck223 Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I was raised to simple standards. Don't promise what you can't deliver. Deliver on your promises. Own your mistakes but learn from them. Risk your own ass, but mind you don't put another at risk. I'm a natural born cynic. I know in time, every man will fail. That doesn't make the man a failure. It makes him human. When he makes no effort to address the failure, it makes him shameless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrumpyOne Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 All a man can really call his own is his honor and integrity. If you don't have one, you don't have the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes him human. When he makes no effort to address the failure, it makes him shameless. My wife has a desk piece that says: "To err is human, to blame it on someone else shows management skills." My other all time favorite that I heard for the last 30 years: "FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION!" Every person who ever said that really meant this: "Failure is imminent, and I am making sure you guys get blamed and NOT ME!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
