Locking in a “Promise Culture”
JKLPCadmin 0 Comments Core Values Passion People Performance Plan Preservation Promise Purpose
During this week of the Commercial Holiday of “Valentine’s Day” thoughts can sometimes go to promises kept and promises broken. Promises are not made to be broken. They break when the foundation of the promise is weak. Much like building a house of sticks which the wolf can blow over or pouring your concrete footings in quicksand, you can’t expect for the structure to weather the storms of life.

A simple culture of RESPECT
JKLPCadmin 0 Comments Core Values Passion People Performance Plan Preservation Promise Purpose
As the Aretha Franklin song states R E S P E C T! Look around you and unfortunately, the culture has moved so far too self-gratification and self-indulgence that simple respect for each other is being lost in the noise of selfishness. All hope is not lost as there is some indication that upcoming generations do see the value in doing the little things for others.

Our world of noise and distraction likes to hype various things about culture.

Resolutions of change give each of us the opportunity to rework part of our lives that we believe needs improvement for one reason or another. The reality is we can’t erase what has happened. Once done it is part of the genetics of the world. It might be small and undetectable by most but it is there. Our resolutions are not a rewrite of history. They are an improvement of our future. Let our culture never evolve into a mindset of rewriting the past to disguise the future.

JKLPCadmin 0 Comments Core Values Passion People Performance Plan Preservation Promise Purpose
Cultures, just like various and diverse grains, seeds, and nuts, each has its value to nourish and provide unique tastes to nurture our lives. Too often when something is different we first turn our nose up or away rather than pointing it directly at the matter and learning what is good. In a culture where we first engage positively rather than negatively, we can only rise higher to more and greater fulfillment.
