Don't cost a dime.

Every few weeks, I make a new "Offensive Coordinator's Call Sheet." Usually it is simply an update of my previous one.

This has very little to do with gridiron football, but I do have a double-sided color-infused chart of quotations and things I want to keep in mind. When I get a new or better thought, all I do is use my pen to make a note and when I get around to it, my new and improved chart emerges.

I did that today. And I made another one to give away to the good folks out there who may want it.

I typically format my "call sheet" for legal-sized paper (8.5" x 14") and I print it on cardstock, since I am not like most people and keep a decent amount of legal-sized cardstock around.

Today, I reformatted my sheet into letter-size to make it easier for anyone else to print it properly.

What's on it?

Some quotes:

• Waylon Jennings — There's always one more way to do things and that's your way, and you have a right to try it at least once.

• Jerry Seinfeld — [L]earn to accept your mediocrity. No one’s really that great. You know who’s great? The people that just put tremendous amount of hours into it. It’s a game of tonnage.

• Jim Rome — Attitude is a choice, and it is controllable.

• Robert Conquest's Three Laws of Politics (Second Law) — Any organization not explicitly and constitutionally right-wing will sooner or later become left-wing.

• Brian D. O'Leary — I want it. I don't need it.

Plus, 23 more …

On the flip side of the sheet, I have various books that I find myself referencing a lot, usually with one or two key points for each.

There are sayings and mottoes that I've developed over the years, or outright stole from others. (I credit folks where I can.)

Some examples:

• Take swift action. There is no time like the present.

• “Make Kimchi” a BO’L “original” — The idea literally stinks! But it gets you places. You may become healthier.

• Write down your ideas. 10 per day. Send people unsolicited ideas. Why have "secrets?"

• Hans Gruber: Who are you then? John McClane: Just a fly in the ointment, Hans. The monkey in the wrench. The pain in the ass.

• Do it your way! Say "no" and don't feel bad about it. You don't have to follow trends…

And nearly 20 more of these morsels …

This is my gift to the loyal readers of my epistles.
