Quotes worth recording – Buckminister Fuller

I got (or stole, really) this one from an email from Terry at PSVillage. I am a big fan of Buckminister Fuller and his work. This simple quote from him is about focusing on WIIFT (What’s in it for them). I wish everyone followed a simple rule of  keeping

WIIFT > WIIFM

Enjoy the quote

Rajesh, I had to smile when I saw this quote on your blog. I must admit that I “stole” it from the book “The Speed of Trust” by Stephen M.R. Covey. A great book, by the way. Everyone should read it and apply its principles. I also want to point out that when I first read Buckminister’s quote it reminded me of you. You came along in the “nick of time” to help me take PSVillage to a whole new level, without asking for anything in return. And our community has benefited greatly from the implementation of your ideas. Thank you for all you do for others!!!
