A comment that keeps coming up in the industry that I work with is the need to get "back to basics". Everyone needs to practice the basics, get back to the basics, re-learn the basics, etc.
So I was fascinated that this month's "Horizons" column in the ASAE Magazine "Associations Now" features an article entitled "Fundamentals for Tough Times" (by Ronnie Wilkins, CAE).
Includes these:
1. Be a good person.
2. Show up.
3. Work hard.
4. Don't quit.
For example, under work hard he writes, "However, I have not yet found a task I could not master through intense and protracted effort." I've found the same thing.
Ronnie is right. Tough times means getting back to the basics. For our members, and for us.

Thank you for linking to Ronnie's article, Cindy! I thought he had some great insights to share--I personally found his simple rules to be really inspiring. I'm glad that you did too!
