Robert Sher's folly...


Some quick advice and how to improve your life...as inspired by Robert Sher...

Robert Sher says...

First, please think about these questions:
• Do you need more hours in the day?
• Do you struggle with self discipline?
• Do you have trouble balancing your personal and work life?
• Are you having trouble keeping a reserve of cash and friends on tap?
• Do you spend more time at the office than at home?
The best thing in the world here is that the answers for me are these...
No. No. No. No. No.
But, when I used to work for Bentley Publishing Group I answered...
Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes.
The solution for me? Work for the premier art publishing company in the world. Working for a place where people value your input, value your talent, and value you as a human being is such a world different than I was used to.
Life is way too short to work for a morally bankrupt boss and to sit and watch life go past as you struggle for someone else's goal while your own goals are belittled and your own common sense is sidelined as "undisciplined" nonsense.
Think about it like this: If you keep fighting the same fights and feeling like the people in charge have an agenda different than the one they show you, you are wasting your life.
