What You Do, Not Reasons Why You Didn't


"It's no use saying "We are doing our best." You have got to succeed in doing what is necessary."


Winston Churchill
20th century British politician

Excuses you give your boss explaining why something didn't get done are only that.

Excuses

You are paid for accomplishments.
