Start by doing what’s necessary, then do what’s possible, and suddenly
you are doing the impossible.
—St. Francis of Assisi

Keep on Truckin’ is an oldie but goodie slogan from the 60s (some reports even say from the 30s!) that to many simply meant “hang in there”.  Seems like this a good time to remind ourselves, and others, to do just that!

Even those with the most positive mindset are feeling worn-out. When will we have normalcy, and what will define the new normal? No one knows the answer, but we can define how we address the unknowns, and hopefully along the way also help others.

Components required for success have not changed. Goals still need to be achieved with our vision and mission continually supported. Innovative thinking and enhancing existing processes are never ending, and we need to be aware of how we feel, and even more importantly be acutely aware if our attitude is dimming. So, what can we do?
