do your job well

Jan 18, 2010

This morning I got up at my regular time and starting doing regular work. Perry made a couple of calls and no one answered. Odd for larger companies to not have someone to take calls. I then tried to call my g/f at the Town Hall, and there was no answer there either. It was almost 11:00 AM before we realized that today is Martin Luther King Jr. Day!

So in fitting with the National holiday that I worked through, below is a timeless quote to live by — every day:

“If a man is called to be a street sweeper, he should sweep streets even as Michelangelo painted or Beethoven composed music or Shakespeare wrote poetry. He should sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say, ‘Here lived a great street sweeper who did his job well.’”
~ Martin Luther King, Jr.
