For a research project I'm doing, I'd appreciate your answer to this question:

" Good things come to those who...."

Many Thanks.

Good things come to those who do good to others

I like Vijay's answer.

Here are a few that occur to me...

" Good things come to those who prepare."
" Good things come to those who ask."
" Good things come to those who engage."

Good things come to those who subscribe to the philosophy that regardless of the situation they find themselves in they take on the attitude that they 'can't wait to see what good results from the situation".

I like the primer: good things come to those who:

Don't wait for good things to come to them.
Go out and get them.
Believe that everything that comes can be seen as good in some way.
Send good things out to others.
Can pick the right lottery numbers :)
See life as an experienced to be lived rather than merely a problem to be solved.

It comes to those who give their best shot to what ever they do irrespective of the outcome. Because when they see the result thay can say, " It's a job well done, cos it could be worse". Such a person will always have a feeling of good things happening to him / her.
thanks

Good things come to those who listen.

Good things come to those who focus on giving, not on getting.

Somebody stole mine, but it bares repeating. Good things come to those who prepare. (I think there's a saying out there that good luck is nothing but opportunity meeting preparation.)

Also, part of this is how we define "good things." If we're in the habit of seeing the positive in everything, we can nearly always find a silver lining. Good things come to those who are looking for good things.

Ah, the script for a boss! That is easy, but a long way from the traditional one. First, I suggest the boss do a quick read of Douglas McGregor's "The Human Side of Enterprise" to gain an understanding of the theory behind X and Y. Then commit the…

My view on this is that where you treat employee engagement like a ‘big bang’ corporate change programme it will always carry a significant risk of turning into an ‘organisational Vietnam’. Don’t go to war in the first place! Do it by taking lots a…

A manager should always remember he/she is "on stage"- and his/her subordinates notice every little trait so always exhibit the behavior you would want them to emulate.

In my experience, achieving engagement creates huge increases in productivity per person, morale, retention, profits, sales, and every other "devoutly to be wished" result. So it is always worth the effort. But the company person, CEO or executive…
