Your Whole Toolkit


If the only tool you have is a hammer,
you tend to see every problem as a nail.
- Abraham Maslow

Read my thoughts about this... 

If at first you don't succeed, get a bigger hammer.
- Alan Lewis
[Sometimes a bigger hammer works, but it isn't a very creative approach.]

Thaw with her gentle persuasion is more powerful
than Thor with his hammer.
The one melts, the other breaks into pieces.
- Henry David Thoreau

Little men with little minds and little imaginations
go through life in little ruts,
smugly resisting all changes which would jar their little worlds.
- Zig Ziglar

Insanity is doing the same thing, over and over again,
but expecting different results.
- Rita Mae Brown, also attributed to Einstein

If your only tool is a bomb,
you tend to see every problem as a target.

- William J. H. Boetcker

The reward for conformity is that everyone likes you but yourself.
- Rita Mae Brown

Conformity is the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth.
- John F. Kennedy

The opposite of courage in our society
is not cowardice, it is conformity.

If you stand up and be counted,
from time to time you may get yourself knocked down.
But remember this: A man flattened by an opponent can get up again.
A man flattened by conformity stays down for good.
- Thomas J. Watson

I have no need to conform to the stereotypes
others have defined for me.
