Before looking at the challenges in business today with a heavy heart, keep in mind that businesses that existed 164 years ago and are still thriving all experienced and survived the Civil War, two World Wars, Prohibition, the Great Depression, and at least 16 recessions!

This multi-generation family business's present CEO referenced a beautiful quote by George Bernard Shaw at their 75th Years Celebration. It says: The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man.
