Thread regarding Follett layoffs

For Team Members

"My definition of success? The more you're actively and practically engaged, the more successful you will be."

"My general attitude to life is to enjoy every minute of every day. I never do anything with a feeling of, 'Oh God, I've got to do this today.'"

"My biggest motivation? Just to keep challenging myself. I see life almost like one long university education that I never had--every day I'm learning something new."

"To be successful, you have to be out there. You have to hit the ground running and if you have a good team around you, and more than a fair share of luck, you might make something happen. But you certainly can't guarantee it just by following someone else's formula."

“There is no greater thing you can do with your life and your work than follow your passions – in a way that serves the world and you.”

“As soon as something stops being fun, I think it’s time to move on. Life is too short to be unhappy. Waking up stressed and miserable is not a good way to live.”

Good reminder for those still at Follett. I was RIF'd two weeks ago and although I am a little worried about finding a new opportunity quickly enough, it is nice not to worry about the stuff at Follett. I think it was better to get laid off two weeks ago then continue to watch the layoffs occur and it would be me at a later date.
