Mortgage Industry ...Going north or south - 01/15/08 01:44 PM
With the recent buyout of Country Wide by Bank of America for 4 Billion Dollars. Where is the market heading.  Now Bank of America has the largest market share.  I guess they really put their money where their mouth is.  Now there are talks about JP Morgan Chase making a play to buy WaMu.  Why all of a sudden are these major takeovers happening in out time of desparir? In my opinion it looks like these major banks were looking to strike while the iron is hot.  Does this mean they are hopeful that their large investments will be soon paying off.  do … (0 comments)

More words of wisdom - 01/03/08 02:45 PM
"He who rushes ahead doesn't go far."-- Lao-Tzu (~500 B.C.E), Tao Te Ching
Consider This:
The benefit of rushing is largely an illusion. The advantage it provides in the short term pales in comparison to the long term damage it can do. Rushing undermines critical thinking, dialogue, & learning processes. If unchecked for too long, it significantly decreases individual and organizational capacity to make smart decisions. It becomes OK not to think things through.
A distinction to look at is rushing vs. moving quickly. When someone rushes, they shortchange processes. When someone moves quickly, they follow processes - with speed. On the surface, … (1 comments)

Pour it all over the steps. They won't refreeze (wish I had known this for the last 40 years!) ================================================= To … (4 comments)

Words Of Wisdom.... - 01/02/08 12:25 PM
Each morning in Africa the sun comes up, and the Gazelle awakes with the knowledge that he must run faster than the fastest Lion or he will be killed. The Lion also wakes up with the knowledge that he must run faster than the slowest Gazelle or he will starve to death.
