"Give a lot, expect a lot, and if you don't get it, prune"

This quote by Tom Peters motivates us to be generous with our time, energy, and resources. We need to offer a lot to our relationships, our work, and our neighborhoods. We need to anticipate a lot in return, such as respect, appreciation, and commitment. However, if we don't get what we expect, we should not hesitate to prune. Pruning is a metaphor for cutting away the important things that are not serving us. It is a way of taking back control and ensuring that we are not wasting our time and energy on things that are not advantageous. Pruning can be tough, however it is necessary in order to make sure that we are investing our energy and time in the best locations. By following this recommendations, we can make certain that we are getting the most out of our relationships, work, and neighborhoods.
