A slight departure from the normal post. I’m starting Project M. Its a quest to hear and share great metaphors and quotes you use to help people understand your business and brand strategy.
Yesterday is history…..
Tomorrow is a mystery….
but today is the present and that’s why they call it a gift
Represents the do it today attitude
His thoughts were slow
His words were few
And never made to Glisten
But he was a joy
Wherever he went
You should have heard him listen
Reminds the effective communicator in all of us
Please fuel Project M with verbal and visual metaphors for business problems. The only rule is that when you share your happy for other people to use.
