Tenacity

I think that tenacity is a quality that is quite often needed in hard times. Do we stick to the task at hand and complete it. And when it fails do we adaptively do better. Kaizen, some would say, is the Japanese secret to a step-wise incremental improvement process that comes from a time when warriors were known for their fastidious attention to the details.

Most of the time I believe it is best to create win - win scenarios in business, family, or even in personal relationships. Still, at times, it requires more. That is when negotiation breaks down and the other side is pointing fingers.

I feel like I'm in a hole with no where to go but one thing I do know. The other side of the coin is someone who is dying from chemical restraint. So my efforts, however frustrating to me, will be as much as I can do in this lifetime. And that is a price I have to pay.

I now understand the idea of secret combinations where a committee or group get together and plot to do their work behind the scenes without any view of the consequences to others. The hidden agenda is this case is the money they think they gain. What a sad day for humanity. So I wake up each day to do more, to say more, to be more than I am today.
