The Monday Morning Memo

Morty_NewYorkStory

Roy, I think God loves me.

I met with Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx today in New York. It was a very productive 4 hour meeting.

In the meeting they asked me to include in my monthly contract things I’m not good at. But I thought to myself that I have a partner in Phoenix named Austin Leonard (copied on this email)who may just be perfect for this.

So I left the meeting, made a small note in my calandar to “Call Austin tomorrow.” Then I ran off to catch the subway.

Unfortunately,  instead of jumping on the Q train, I inadvertently jumped onto the N train. After a few stops I realized my mistake. So I jumped off at the first stop I could to grab the Q train.

But that station didn’t have a Q train.

So I grabbed the R train. My thinking was that the R train goes in the same general direction as the Q train so “I’ll figure it out” along the way.

So I’m on the R train looking at a map of the different train schedules and there standing next to me was someone so familiar. “Austin is that you?” The blonde-haired gentelman turned to me and looked for a minute, then said “Morty?”

I didn’t need to wait a day to speak with Austin. God delivered him directly to me.

God does love me.

Random Quote:

“Laid side-by-side, a stick and a rope of the same length share a similar profile. Likewise, rules and principles look alike even though they have little in common.

Rules are like sticks. You can prod people with them.
You can threaten people with them.
You can beat people with them.
But you cannot lead people with them.

When a rule doesn’t fit the circumstance, your only choice is to break it.

Principles are like rope, able to conform to the shape of any problem. They are less brittle than rules, and stronger. Principles whisper valuable advice and people are happily led by them.

A rule requires obedience. A principle requires contemplation.

Rules are demanded by people
who have not the wit to understand and apply
the appropriate, all-encompassing principle.
“
