I’m afraid I’m only partially participating, but Hans tagged me w/ this meme…

1. Grab the book closest to you
2. Open it to page 161
3. Find the fifth full sentence
4. Post the text of the sentence to your blog
5. Don’t search around for the coolest book you have, use the one that is really next to you.
6. Tag five people to do this meme.

The Daily Drucker by Peter Drucker:

There are answers that have a high probability of being the wrong ones–at least to the point where one does not even try them unless all else has failed.

That’s “the fifth full sentence” if you don’t consider a sentence beginning with “But” to be a full sentence. If you do, it is:

But I do not believe that there is “one correct answer.”

To learn how to run a business, a simple rec: read Drucker!
