#96 - Get Hammered

Blog_hammer"To a man with a hammer, everything looks like a nail." - Mark Twain

Mark Twain was a bit of a freak during his time. He has a lot of great quotes and I used a few of them in my first book. However, I'd like to modify this one slightly.

"If you are a person with a hammer, start looking for nails."

In other words . . .

  • Use what you have.
  • Seek out situations that require what you possess.
  • If you have a hammer, then find things that need hammering.
  • Don't worry about the tools that you don't have.
  • Find people with a broken hammer or no hammer. They need someone just like you.
  • If someone criticizes you for only having a hammer, hit them with the hammer to prove that you can do more than just pound nails.
