  • Barefoot Passengers in Disgusting Airports - I was returning this morning from Ft.

  • Dig for the Root Cause and Solve the Real Problem - Root cause analysis is used in many quality programs and can be used to solve many management problems. A person without the discpline to find the real problem will often jump to an answer that doesn't uncover the root of the problem.

Quality programs have been the way of life for operations in the aviation manufacturing business since WWII, but it has spilled over into other industries in modern times. Companies seeking certification under quality programs, or just wanting to improve their operations, must learn the discipline of digging for the root cause. For example, the first assumption made in airplane crashes is pilot error. The crash investigation team knows better.

The first military watches were naval pieces, chronometers that worked well for their purposes, but as other branches of the military - aviation in particular - made major technological advances around the time of the Second World War, precise seconds became critical. As the saying goes, "necessity is the mother of invention," and Navigator (also known as "Pilot") watches were born.

  • Fear Itself - We've all heard this before: Fear is the opposite of love and faith. Fear is a good indicator that we're not living in the present moment and we've forgotten to seek out solitude.
