Write your own book instead of reading someone else's book about success. Great moments are born from great opportunities. This is your time. Their time is done. It's over. This is your time. Now go out there and take it!
- Herb Brooks
When we assign blame we are pointing the finger to who or what is responsible for a fault or for a wrong doing. We are trying to make others accountable. Blaming does not solve a problem it usually only makes people defensive.
Alot of people are all talk, what they say and what they do are two different things. As the saying goes, talk is cheap. Without actions behind the talk, it is all useless.

Some people want it to happen, some wish it would happen, others make it happen.
I've always believed that if you put in the work, the results will come. I don't do things half-heartedly. Because I know if I do, then I can expect half-hearted results.

Excuses kill solutions and dilute passion. Kill excuses before it kills you. Focus is key! Obstacles will always exist on your path, but it's important to remember that it is not these challenges that stop us from becoming the amazing people we can be, it is often our own excuses that stop us. - Vijay Eswaran
Audit success comes from service, not from status. The true standards of audit practice are found within the auditor's character: honesty, integrity, self control and high ethical values. The printed standards are merely guidelines for trying to make the art of auditing into a profession. - Michael L. Piazza
Auditors must develop a reputation that proclaims that they know what they are doing... that their reviews are factual and unbiased... that they deserve to be respected... that they are professionals with professional qualifications. A fundamental key to audit success is the reputation for objectivity. That implies independence from activities reviewed. Complete independence is an unattainable goal while practical independence is not only possible but absolutely essential. - Larry Sawyer

Woe to the unfortunate man who, wholly or in part innocent, becomes entangled in its mighty wheels, unless his innocence is patent or his rescue planned and executed by able counsel. The machine will grind on relentlessly and ruthlessly, and blindfolded justice does not see that the grist is sometimes stained with blood.

It's no secret that the healthcare system needs some work. In fact, it's not really a system at all. It's confusing, it's difficult to navigate, and it's too expensive. When you combine that with some of the demographic trends that you see in our country — the population is getting older, we're experiencing more chronic disease — it gets even more complicated and more expensive. And consumer expectations are changing dramatically as well. So, this creates an opportunity for an organization like ours to lead this digital transformation.

When a man becomes a fireman his greatest act of bravery has been accomplished. What he does after that is all in the line of work.
I have no ambition in this world but one, and that is to be a fireman. The position may, in the eyes of some, appear to be a lowly one; but we who know the work which the fireman has to do believe that his is a noble calling. Our proudest moment is to save lives. Under the impulse of such thoughts, the nobility of the occupation thrills us and stimulates us to deeds of daring, even of supreme sacrifice.

HART - The Purge - The Prize - The Pivot - The Team - Great Opportunities and Great Moments
1. HONOLULU AUTHORITY FOR RAPID TRANSIT (HART)
The Rail Project
Future Leadership on The Chopping Block
It's not clear whether the recent departures are part of HART Interim Executive Director Lori
Kahikina's earlier drive to save cosst by streamlining the agency.
Nearly half the agency's staff was purged under that effort, and the severity of the cuts
concerned rail's federal overseers. Kahikina, however, said the move was justified with so
little construction work happening on rail's final four miles to Ala Moana.
Kahikina has a one-year contract in the interim role that runs through December, and the
HART board's Human Resources Committee has been reviewing her job performance in
closed session on a quarterly basis. Recently, the committee has met to discuss an
“employment agreement for the executive director and CEO.”
HART Sheds More Staff, Including Its Latest Chief Financial Officer
The changes come amid the HART board's private discussions on future leadership at the agency

Companies facing a reduced market share from lower consumer demand or a downturn in
the business cycle may be forced to reduce operational output. This reduction may include
laying off employees, selling equipment or assets and closing underperforming business
facilities. Companies may need to take additional measures depending on the
consistency of business losses and whether their initial reduction methods have
lessened the impact of operational losses. [Emphasis Supplied]
What Are the Effects of Profit or Loss in a Business Organization?

PANOS PREVEDOUROS
I like Lori a lot and I have worked with her a little bit on environmental issues and waste
disposa. While transportation may not be her strength, I think she can manage big things, and
that could be helpful. It may be a wise interim appointment for now. Her appointment as one
of HART's better choices. She's very familiar with the city, with a lot of local companies, and
she's a graduate of UH engineering — she has a lot of things going for her.
However, I don't know, this project has so many problems, nobody can perform miracles.

2. SHOULD ALA MOANA REMAIN THE PRIZE?
A Final Destination Driven by Full-Funding From Feds
The $10 billion-plus project is over budget and its opening long delayed.
Kahikina said it's clear to her that the FTA expects the project to go the entire 20-mile, 21-
station route from East Kapolei to Ala Moana Center as part of the Full Funding Grant
Agreement that provided a $1.55 billion federal share of the project. The rest of the project is
being funded largely through state excise and hotel room taxes, with a significantly smaller
portion from city property taxes.

3. BUILD YOUR TEAM!
WISDOM FROM HERB BROOKS
You win with people, not with talent. So the quality of the people is very important in
building your team. I always looked for people with a solid value system. Then I recruited
kids from a cross-section of different personalities, talents, and styles of play. My
recruiting key - I looked for people first, athletes second. I wanted people with a sound
value system as you cannot buy values. You're only as good as your values.
Every single one of those players was chosen for a specific reason. I've seen them, I've
watched them, and I coached a lot of them.
What is courage? Let me tell you what I think it is. An indefinable quality that makes a
man put out that extra something when it seems there is nothing else to give.
Let me start with issuing you a challenge: Be better than you are. Set a goal that seems
unattainable, and when you reach that goal, set another one even higher.
