Quote of the day from Henry Ford:

If there is any one secret of success, it lies in the ability to get the other person’s point of view and see things from his angle as well as your own.

Practice L&N Habits every day: Professionalism, Critical Thinking, Collaboration, Innovation, Inquiry, & Design
