No matter how much I care, some people just don’t care back.
It takes years to build up trust, and only seconds to destroy it.
It’s not what you have in your life but who you have in your life that counts.
You can get by on charm for about fifteen minutes. After that, you’d better know something.
You can do something in an instant that will give you heartache for years,
It’s taking me a long time to become the person I want to be.

Are your team meetings becoming boring and mundane with the same agendas and targets repeated every time?
Here are five activities that can be used as icebreakers during your next meeting. They are fairly simple, involve zero investment and will inject much needed fun and enthusiasm in your teams.
Activity 1: Who’s got the big foot?
