It Only Takes A Few Words

puzzle.jpgSometimes it only takes a few words to get the job done. For example, David Zinger over at Slacker Manager requested what he calls 6 word management stories.

The results, of which he’s published 52, are amazing. Take these three for instance:

  • First, take care of your people.
  • I trust you, make it happen.
  • Once knew all. Now know better.

Aren’t those lovely? There’s some real writing here.

Write well and often,

Two newsletters:
Abundant Freelance Writing – a resource for freelance writers including 3x a week job postings.
Writing With Vision – for those who want to get a book written.

    There is something so powerful in the 6 word statement. I also loved the last one: Once knew all, now know better.

    Yes, they remind me in a way of a Zen koan… sorta
