The
concept of finding the least common denominator may be useful for
dealing with fractions, but it is not necessarily the best way to approach life. Whether we are talking about our personal life, our
professional life, our business, or our relationships with others – we
can rise above the ordinary, the mediocre, the merely acceptable. We
each have the opportunity to add to the richness, the beauty, the
goodness, and the humanity of life. And, we should not dismiss such a
notion as some mere greeting card sentiment. It is easy, perhaps even
popular, to be cynical – to be above it all. But, we can choose another
response and, in doing so, choose another outcome.
