Q.D.F (Quote Day Friday)

"Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan, 'press on' has solved, and always will solve, the problems of the human race.”

~Calvin Coolidge

Be Easy To Deal With.

It’s one of our Core Values, in-fact it’s our first value and we are celebrating it this month!

What being easy to deal with means to Medical House:

1. Be Easy to Deal with
Customers, suppliers, and other team members are constantly saying to themselves, “they really are easy!” Our number one core value dictates that everything else we do ensures that dealing with us is Easy!
Easy to find us, contact us, buy off us, deliver to us, pay us, work with us and be us!

“Everybody loves you when you're easy. . .
Everybody hates when you're a bore…
Everyone is waiting for your entrance, so don't disappoint them.”
Sarah Mclachlan

“When your work is an extension of who you really are deep down inside,
it's no longer a job or a career. It's a calling.”
Tony Hsieh

I’m obsessed with this Core Value and rate it of high importance.  I’m that person who switches companies over poor service.  When a mistake is made (which is always ok- we are human after all!) but no action was taken to correct or ensure the same thing doesn’t happen again, I take my business elsewhere.  I can’t stand pointless procedures that are there for no real reason.  Procedures that no-one has stopped and questioned why they are there in the first place. I don’t like if a simple task or issue is magnified and becomes difficult (and I’m basically made to jump through hoops).  Or if an email is not answered the same day (or even an update or acknowledgment received) or if I can’t get a simple answer....
Sounds like I’m difficult huh?
No, I just like to deal with people that are easy to deal with. Like most people I’m time-poor and I just really like things to be simple and easy.
Why wouldn’t you be easy to deal with?

At Medical House we pride ourselves on being easy to deal with, which not only makes your life simpler - but it keeps our lives simple as well.

Q.D.F: Simple Truths We Often Forget

Recently I read a great Blog that listed 101 Simple truths we often forget.  I'm sharing some that really resonated with me for Q.D.F (Quote Day Friday)

• The acquisition of knowledge doesn’t mean you’re growing.  Growing happens when what you know changes how you live.

• You can’t have good ideas unless you’re willing to generate a lot of bad ones.

• A good idea without action is worth nothing.

• People seldom do things to the best of their ability.  They do things to the best of their willingness.

• You can’t change other people; you can only offer guidance, and lead by example.

• Some circumstances are uncontrollable, but we can always decide how we react to those circumstances.

• It’s not so much about finding opportunities as it is about creating them.

• Having a plan, even a flawed one at first, is better than no plan at all.

• If you’re waiting for the perfect conditions, ideas or plans to get started, you’ll never achieve anything.

• Putting something off makes it instantly harder and scarier.

• Kindness and hard work together will always carry you farther than intelligence.

• Being successful is a journey, not a destination.

• Your success isn’t just about you.  It’s about how you positively impact the lives around you.

• Everyone you meet is better than you at something.  We all have different strengths.  What worked for someone else might not work for you.

• Just because you can doesn’t mean you should.

• In the beginning, you need to say “yes” to a lot of things to discover and establish your goals.  Later on, you need to say “no” to a lot of things and concentrate on your goals.

• The fewer possessions you own, the more you will use and enjoy them.

• Screaming at people always makes things worse.

• Not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck.

• We meet no ordinary people in our lives.  If you give them a chance, everyone has something amazing to offer.

• Blowing out another’s candle will not make yours shine brighter.

• Things turn out best for people who make the best out of the way things turn out.

Truth...
