I printed this webpage to keep in my cubical. I try to hold on to inspirational writting when I can and this is top notch quality.

However since I took something away I'll give something back. Quote from an Unknown author:

“The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails.”

Great article (ofcourse I can see that I am a couple of years late in appreciating it).

However, I do not agree with the point "Under promise over deliver" 100%. While the intention is understandably to gain appreciation for doing something over I really think that this sort of thinking actually kills the true idea. Many people start to promise stuff which is easy to do so as to always over perform and gain appreciation.
