Four-Way Test

At the beginning of each meeting we remind ourselves of the The Four-Way Test.  Therefore, please remember to ask yourself always . . .

Of the things we think, say or do:

  1. Is it the TRUTH?
  2. Is it FAIR to all concerned?
  3. Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
  4. Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?

A Reflective Moment

“Believe you can and you are halfway there”        Theodore Roosevelt
 
A Light Moment
 
With the overload of coverage during this political season, this would never fly today.
For a fellow nicknamed Silent Cal, Calvin Coolidge had a sly, dry sense of humor. There’s the famous exchange he had with a hostess at a gathering:

Coolidge: "You lose.
 

 

This week’s Program:  Perspective and the Power of Yes

All of us struggle with career, family, alone time and the need to succeed. As a business driven organization, Rotary was founded on many meaningful principles of fairness, friendship and striving to help others. As we launch a campaign to attract new members and grow our roster, it is important to keep perspective in what is important to us all. Keeping a healthy and happy balance is important in life. The link below gives a unique look into someone who “has it all” and how it may not be enough if you lose perspective into what is important.
