Only dead fish go with the flow.
Quote of the Week 31
"Only dead fish go with the flow."― Proverb
Triggered by an interview with Prof. Dr. D. Grönemeyer who used this old saying in German:
"Nur tote Fische schwimmen mit dem Strom."
All perceptions are real, at least to those who own them.
Quote of the Week 28 "All perceptions are real, at least to those who own them." ― Joe Folkman Related quotes: "In politics, perception is reality." ― Lee Atwater "Perception is reality. If you are perceived to be something, you might as well be it because that’s the truth in people’s minds." ― Steve Young "Perception is reality, but it may not be actuality, and you have got to be able to keep the difference between that." ― Bill Cowher Triggered by Ron Lichty's use of the quote in many of his presentations and the book " Managing the Unmanageable: Rules, Tools, and Insights for Managing Software People and Teams " citing Folkman's 1996 book "Turning Feedback into Change!". See also Principle 5 in Folkman's subsequent book " The Power of Feedback ".
