Quotes worth recording – Eric Hoffer
By Rajesh Setty on Thu 15 Nov 2007, 10:24 AM – 2 Comments
Thanks to Sterling, our Vistage Chair for sharing this quote at yesterday’s meeting. These few lines have a lot to offer. In fact, please share this quote to as many friends as possible.
Think about it. Today, you are equipped to deal with issues and challenges and go after opportunities of today. A few years from now, world would have changed (significantly) and what you have today (eg: skills, knowledge, network etc.) won’t e sufficient to handle what the future will unfold for you. Most people will do NOTHING about it as they are students of “Learning on the Go” school.
What does not change is that you have a choice. Investing in yourself is not a one-time thing. You have to do it for the rest of your life.
Enjoy the quote:

I would like to introduce the ICFAI – The ICFAI (Institute of Chartered Financial Analysts of India) University is a non-profit organization involved, primarily, in imparting quality education in the area of Management and Finance.
