Thoughts on Working

Sometimes I just sit back and marvel at how much we actually get accomplished in any given workday at the Forest Foundation. Seriously, I'm not trying to toot our own horn here, but our staff is extremely dedicated. You can see it every morning during our daily update meetings, each full-time employee giving a robust account of what they accomplished the day before and what they plan to accomplish that day. There's a phrase David C. often says, which I believe was originally coined by Morris, that goes something like, "When the rest are walking, we need to be running." And I think that's what makes our staff so unique - everyone's willing to run as fast as necessary to make the foundation a success. Working days, nights, weekends, those kinds of things don't really matter to our staff. It's not a matter of when you do your work or how you get it done, but just that you do it to the best of your ability and constantly strive to improve. Shouldn't that always be the point of someone's work?
