“The greatest leader is not necessarily the one who does the greatest things. He is the one that gets the people to do the greatest things.”

Being a leader isn’t about being recognized for the great things you do.  It’s about enabling and building others up to do great things.  Go and do this in your community, place of work, and family!

At dawn, when you have trouble getting out of bed, tell yourself: “I have to go to work — as a human being. What do I have to complain of, if I’m going to do what I was born for — the things I was brought into the world to do? Or is this what I was created for? To huddle under the blankets and stay warm?”

-Marcus Aurelius

ROCKY 3 IS GREAT BECAUSE YOU SEE HIM GO FROM BEING ON TOP TO BEING LOW. HE EVENTUALLY ADAPTS AND CHANGES HIM SELF AND GROWS FROM IT. THERES A QUOTE FROM ROCKY BALBOA THAT SUMS IT UP

“Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done!”

Did you hear about the rose that grew
from a crack in the concrete?
Proving nature’s law is wrong it
learned to walk with out having feet.
Funny it seems, but by keeping its dreams,
it learned to breathe fresh air.
Long live the rose that grew from concrete
when no one else ever cared.”Tupac Shakur
