Publisher's Synopsis
Turn on the news, read a newspaper, or simply sit and watch. STUPID is all around us. We see STUPID in our government, at our jobs and in our communities. We especially see STUPID in the crime reports and on the streets. Time after time, we see people doing STUPID things. But before you get too smug, look at your own life. You know you have done some stupid things as well. But that is ok. You are in good company. We have all done stupid things but the stupidest thing you can do is to not admit it and keep doing it - over and over and over and over. But I do believe we can fix STUPID in many situations. It is not a lost cause unless we refuse to do anything about it. This book is not about ridicule or filled with hatred. It is not mocking the unfortunate to elevate myself. Instead, this book will help you seize the opportunities that benefit you personally and professionally. It is intended to help us all seize community opportunities by being S.M.A.R.T. instead of S.T.U.P.I.D. This book is written to identify S.T.U.P.I.D. intentions, thinking, reasoning, actions and results so we can transform them into S.M.A.R.T. actions that seize great opportunities. You will learn how Stagnant Thinking Undermines Profound Innovative Ultimate Decisions. In an age of rapid and radical change, we cannot afford anything but forward thinking because clinging to antiquated ideas will result in our demise. Instead, those who re-engineer their thinking to build Sparkling Minds Articulating Revolutionary Transformation, will lead innovation. You will benefit from the case studies examining S.T.U.P.I.D. -Government, -Business, and -Personal decisions in all aspects of life. You will also appreciate the S.M.A.R.T. application with checklists you can use in making decision in each of the following areas: -Intellectual-Emotional-Moral-Willful-Government-Family-Career-Spiritual.Don't be S.T.U.P.I.D. Reading and applying this book is the S.M.A.R.T. thing to do.
