Many interesting opportunities came from compiling this book, one of which is the way those CEO's few the world. A favorite of mine is from David Pursell, CEO of FarmLinks...David's quote "My ethics come from my spiritual beliefs, Christianity. There was at one time more than 300 million laws created to govern man in the US alone. Yet God came up with ten basic laws about how of interact with your fellow man. If you think about those laws, they are very basic. The last one is "Thou shall not covet. I tend to think that this is because if you covet what your neighbor has, it tends to make you ungrateful and unhappy."
I think David is on to something...if there exist 300 million and the population of the US is 330 Million, that means there is a law for almost every man, woman and child...that's a lot of jabbering about stuff! I like God's method of short and simple...
