Daily Inspiration: "Have you ever thought that perhaps you have been looking in the wrong direction, at the wrong time, at the wrong threat?" - Futurist Jim Carroll
The story that unfolds today involves my 2004 book, "What I Learned from Frogs in Texas," and it's pretty exciting - at least for me. That's because today I am in the exact location where this business parable involving the frogs unfolded - The Woodlands Resort in Houston!
It's kind of exciting because this particular book was the culmination of a pretty massive transformation in my career and focus that occurred from about 2000 to the time of the publication of the book in 2004.
As to what happens to the frogs on the road in Texas? I tell the story in the opening chapter of today's post. The story speaks for itself.
And so for me today, it's a bit of a thrill to be standing in the exact same spot some 21 years later where the story unfolded.
As for the story? You can read the opening chapter
It’s important to get that issue out of the way, so I can put the most important theme of this book into perspective: it isn’t the fact that the frogs get crushed, it’s the reasons why.
