KAIZEN…………… AND DANG-IT, I MISSED THE EUREKA SPRINGS TRIATHLON!!!

KAIZEN:

Kaizen is a Japanese word.  I always thought it meant “determination, perseverance, integrity”.  The REAL definition:IMPROVEMENT IN ALL ASPECTS OF LIFE; IMPROVED STANDARDIZED ACTIVITES AND PROCESSES; LEAN MANUFACTURING (the reason Toyota is successful)

Kaizen humanizes work and gets rid of what is called MURI, or tedious and wasteful efforts.

It is systematic and non-judgemental.

 I like the idea of a KAIZEN BLITZ and would love to apply it to all areas of my life to work with and live with MORE INTENSITY!

Wonder if that’s what these guys think:

And Of COURSE, I left out my most immediate goal….2009 Hawaii Iron Man!  I WILL be there!

 

 

 

Mullets.  Ah, mullets!  Where do I begin?  Well, it’s a lunchtime story for later.  I really need to let this one lie a while.  Regardless, here is a link to a website that will make your sides split!  Enjoy.

Mulletology! is a new field a study that is rapidly developing at International levels. Mullets cannot be overlooked. The social, cultural and economical impact that mullets create in our modern socieaties can no longer be ignored or minimized. You can find more detailed and precise information about this scientific discipline in the following website: http://ils.unc.edu/~everj/Mullet/general.htm

Your just jealous because you were too young to wear the Femullet of the 80’s “Business in the front and party in the back!”
