Leadership Theory And Practice 3

This is not personal, it is a business decision.  Accomplishing ends by the choice of means.  Ambiguity is the problem.  The journey is full of twists and turns, it's the destination that matters.  Like a road trip, arrival is survival.  Obviously, 2 dollars is better than nothing, math is math, and no one officially disagreed.  To do nothing would be worse.  All the bailed out, the leveraged, the acquired, the desperate, the dark clouds over Wall Street.

That's what the paycheck's for.  To know and seek to know, to decide and be able to decide, to do and to want to do.  To be trustworthy and to trust.  Concentrate the mind, mobilize the energy, and eliminate distractions.  Just under the panic point, on a shot of adrenaline.  Extreme outcomes.  Flames or glory.  First or nothing.  Game is most definately on. 

Somewhere between analysis and hypnosis.  Odds are always involved, but the dice must be thrown.  Good and fast.  Like a Boeing 787.  Or an International Business Machine.  Strategy met reality in the form of approvals and disapprovals, suggestions and collaborations, and management monitoring.  The board of directors aren't bored anymore.

The hot stove has been touched.  Burn marks are permanent reminders.  Lessons learned:  rationality, pragmatism, pain tolerance.  Account for the balance sheet, it should be heavy on the profit side.  Or clearly on the golden brick road.  These are selfless times, capitalists must mobilize and strategize.  Think, learning from the past, imagining the future, and deciding today.  Leave and go, outside the walls and virtual levels, this ain't no classroom.  The core of the circle, selected selectively.
