Quotable Quote

Today’s blog is from Points To Ponder in the June issue of Reader’s Digest.  Not only is the quote regarding jobs, it is from the former CEO of Hewlett-Packard, who is now one of the current presidential candidates – Carly Fiorina.  This quote is from her book Rising to the Challenge: My Leadership Journey.

“When young people ask me what it takes to get ahead, I tell them to get a job, any job, because there is dignity in all work.  When someone has a job, they not only have a sense of purpose, they learn the habits and skills necessary to get a better job.”

Give your best effort, and take pride in whatever job you do.  You never know what doors will open for you as a result of the skills, knowledge and positive connections you develop.
