Every week i get a leadership e-mail from Author and friend Randy Grouk. This week's e-mail was very short. The heart of his message was taken from others and I am to follow Randy's lead and past on some wisdom from Past Presidents. Given the fact that we just went through an election I thought it was appropriate to pass along at this time.
"Well done is better than well said". - John Adams
"Leave nothing for tomorrow which can be done today". - Abraham Lincoln
"If you live long enough, you'll make mistakes. But if you learn from them, you'll be a better person. It's how you handle adversity, not how it affects you. The main thing is never quit, never quit, never quit". - Bill Clinton
"There is no limit to what you can accomplish if you don't care who gets the credit". - Ronald Reagan
"Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future". -JFK
"Do what you can, with what you have, where you are". -Theodore Roosevelt
"Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal. Nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude". - Thomas Jefferson
I would add one of my favorite quotes to the list.
"Those that fail to learn from history, are doomed to repeat it" Winston Churchill ( He wasn't an American President but since I love the quote I am going to add a bonus from a Prime Minster of Great Britain.)
Voting is very important but it isn't enough. If you want to make a difference in the world you need to be involved in the lives of the people around you.
