Margaret

Je lis:

... And the remaining ninety-nine, Margaret keeps me aware of whatever I need to know. How successful people think. 

- John C. Maxwell

...donc je pense! 

Je recopie ici mon commentaire du livre de Maxwell que j'ai posté sur Goodreads...

Maxwell is a very good motivator. However, I am not sure if he has not written this book for people who want to think like Successful People or for MEN who want to think like Successful People. 

ONE THING that has really, but really, really bugged me is when he talks about the fact that HE does not have time for the mundane! Margaret, wonderful, Margaret (that's his wife) takes care of these meaningless things, because Mister's time is WAY too valuable for them !!! 

Being a woman, I wonder if that makes me doomed for failure ??? 

Who will be my Margaret ? 

I know no men who will agree to take on this role. 

He may at best accept to be the equal but come on writing the Xmas invitations and pulling together the Easter Menu for the 20 guests we are inviting ... I don't think so ! 

If by any chance, Mr. Maxwell's squirrels read this ... please let him know that there are now-a-day some successful women in the work force ... and as it has been said before ... Ginger Rogers was only Fred Astaire's partner, but remember that she danced the same dance as he did, only she did it in high heels and backward! 

OK, I said it! 

OK je pense que j'ai eu une p'tite poussée de fièvre! mais vous comprendrez que dorénavant si je fais référence à être une Margaret ... vous saurez ce que je veux dire ! .
