the right thing

I was reading the other day a book, which does not happen very often and considered myself lucky, as i came upon this quote:

"managers always do things right, leaders on the other hand do the right thing"

I liked it.

Into the thing

Hi, my name is Nikolay and I am starting this blog with the idea to share ideas and thoughts that get provoked by my daily experiences - on the road , in the office, in a company with friends , colleagues, clients, things i see online etc.

To summaries it - Anything that gets me thinking somehow.

I will try and keep all that pretty undetermined if there is such a word and keep facts and figures incognito unless needed. There are going to be some mistakes as english is not my mother tongue but mostly because I`m not a great linguist, plus i will be posting when I get a spare minute, which in most cases is late at night.

So, here we go...6th of October 2011

There were quite a few things going on today that kept my mind busy but one thing i read last night had a deeper impact on me -the tragic news about Steve Job's death. I am not an Apple fanatic , though i use some of their products and its not even about Apple what i am planning to say, it is about a guy that kept going doing what he loved (i guess) to do till the end of his days knowing he did not have many left.

And i am asking myself - Why do some people's dedication and i don't know what madness may be, stupidity (in someone's eyes) .....defys logic and keeps them chasing a believe, idea, path under unimaginable circumstances and is it so impossible for them to step out of all that?

I do admire that and i guess everything is work in progress, just like our lives.
