I'm reading and studying the book Good to Great by Jim Collins and that is exactly one of the attributes of great organizations they studied for the book. They had such clarity as to what they were about that they did not only make a to do list to start doing, but they also created a stop doing list to help them get honest about what were time and energy wasters. <BR/><BR/>Second, I've always loved that benediction line from the UM wedding service too.gmwhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03141082618099710161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6655521.post-1162310807036475372006-10-31T11:06:00.000-05:002006-10-31T11:06:00.000-05:00I love the talk about the source of vision.My chur...I love the talk about the source of vision.<BR/><BR/>My church is now in a "strategic planning" process.
