What was the best advice you've been given

[kite]

TweetIn business or in life? In my business (nursing home), my best advice was from my grandfather "Treat every one of these residents and their families like they were your family". It sounds pretty elementary but you'd be suprised at how easy it is to caught up in the day to day. I make it a point to visit and sit with my residents on a daily basis regardless of mental status.
In life I'd say "Always keep your word", again a very basic thing that should be a given, but unfortunately so many seldom do.

Tweet2 things....
1. when i started in the car biz. (it's a family thing, grandpa down, all men in the family) my dad said "you dont have to lie to sell cars. be honest, straight forward, mean what you say, and say what you mean and remember, you can only give people your word, so dont phuq it up!"
2. when i was young, (teen) my dad used to say " you cant soar with the eagle's in the daytime, if you run with the turkey's all night!"

I try to never think too far ahead as to what can be if certain things need to be done first in order to get there!
