Different is BETTER than better. Different is BETTER than better We grew up with a myth.

Different is BETTER than better

The myth says: Work hard to be “better.” Better than everyone else. Better than the other students in our classroom. In your career, be better than our competition… because that’s how to be the best. I’d like to end this myth right here. "Better" is not better. Being better is temporary. Or a lower price. Or a more convenient location. Or a shinier award. Or a newer technology. Or a fancier degree. Better keeps you chained to the same old way of working as your competition.

I propose that it’s not enough to be the best. In any oversaturated environment, it doesn’t matter how wonderful you are and how much you have to offer. Being the best isn’t enough, if nobody notices or cares. It’s not enough to manufacture the best product if nobody buys them. It’s not enough to be the most worthy politician if nobody votes for you.

50 of the best personal development blogs

In the 6 months that I have been blogging I have come across some excellent blogs in all subjects and thought it would be a good idea to share some of the top blogs in the different areas. This month I will look at the personal development field. You’ve probably all seen the positive blog network (PBN) logo in the sidebar. These are some of the best personal development blogs out there and we will be expanding. The PBN will expand over time and you will have instant access to some great blogs.

Here are a few others that you might like to check out. That’s it for now. Some Amazing Comments. Business White Papers, Webcasts and Case Studies. Relevant Books and How to Skim Them. There are said to be 3000 books a year published on leadership and related items. That’s not counting general self-help, personal growth and development nor does it include human resources and organization effectiveness, which are the corporate offshoots. I update a book list periodically of items I’ve found helpful, but there is no way to keep up with the flood.

I’m always thrilled when people suggest new books and I even try to “triage” them (my word for skimming the contents, covers and a few interesting sections). No one could possibly read them all, nor is it easy to keep up with the flood of blogs and communities in your chosen area. I offer these in the knowledge that they are limited, but in hopes they may stimulate some thinking about how to handle the flood of information we all face: Related Books and How to Skim Them Here are the books referred to in the link above, focused on the five skill areas: (and Built to Last with Jerry Porras -1st book) – Jim Collins – What creates the.

Stephen R. Covey. Choosing Not to be Angry May 4th, 2010 I was teaching the 7 Habits at a professional gathering last week when I experienced something remarkable.
