Take the double-dog dare for improvement in 2006
Colleen Stanley
The holiday season is a great time for watching favorite movies for the umpteenth time. One of the all-time classics is "Christmas Story."
There's a scene in which grade-school boys gather at recess and begin challenging one another to put their tongues on a flagpole. The first challenge begins with "I dare you" and quickly moves to the ultimate challenge: "I double-dog dare you." (Rent the movie to learn the outcome of Ralphie and his buddies.)
The "double-dog dare" is a great challenge to throw out to your sales team or yourself as you gear up for 2006.
