Bartender
Who’s the bartender in your life
You know
The one who monitors stats
Checks ratings
Looks at targets and goals
No, he doesn’t care about alcohol
Or how to mix this or that
He doesn’t care about names on bottles
But he does care about labels
About moving pegs
How do you line up
Where are you headed
How are you going to succeed
Ah succeed
What does the bartender call success
How do you rank
And who is your bar tender
You
How high will you set your bar
And who will you have to step on to reach it
Take a look down
It may just be
Your loved ones down there

great ideas throughout, I’m too kind to step on anyone
Ian,
It’s not that I’m against setting a bar, I think it can be helpful. It’s just that, sometimes that becomes the only focus to the detriment of others and yourself. On the flip side, some folks set their bar too low and end up tripping over it and falling flat on their face. Or, they just let others set the bar for them.
Guess it’s a bit of a balancing act.. .this thing called life
Peace,
Stephen
