It's Christmas time and things are busy at the Martin household. And things are even busier at work. We are working on making things function more efficiently and making them more profitable. We are changing policies and procedures, we are changing passwords, and keys. We are going to monitor things that we never have. We're even analyzing our database system to determine whether or not we have the best system for now and for in the future.
Some team members tell me that others are on pins and needles because of all the changes I am making. Some team members are trying to get on my good side by telling me the "inside scoop". And most of the team think I am trying to change the entire company. I have heard some say that I am trying to change the world.
But actually, I am trying to do something much harder than changing the world. I am trying to change me (with the help of Him). I am trying to be more humble everyday. I am trying to be more thankful. I am very conscious of caring deeply for our company, our employees, our customers, and our subcontractors. I want to be more thoughtful and I want to help others help themselves.
I truly hope that some will catch my vision, my vision of changing myself. And if they do catch that vision and work on themselves, I know without doubt, that we will change our company and become a truly world class service and sales organization.
