“You don’t lead by hitting people over the head – that’s assault, not leadership”. – Dwight Eisenhower. So what does this quote mean, created by Eisenhower? And why did I pick him? Well just by giving you a brief summary of Dwight Eisenhower you will figure out that his quote has true value in everyone’s lives. Dwight was the 34th president of the US. And if that is not something that shows leadership, he was also the supreme commander of the Allied forces during World War II. So I would say he... continue reading >>Two quotes in one.

"The price of greatness is responsibility." - Winston Churchill I would also like to add my quote to his… “Wealth is a gift you have to earn to receive”. I will explain both since I think they should go together and complement each other. First I will explain Winston’s quote. His is powerful not only because he led Great Britain from the brink of defeat to victory as a wartime prime minister or because he was awarded the Nobel prize for literature for his book “the second world war”, or because he was knighted that... continue reading >>Are we using our Sacred Gift or Faithful Servant?

“The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.” When I read this quote by Albert Einstein, I realized he was giving us the secret of wealth and freedom. Many may not see this or can’t understand why this is so. This quote caught my eye the other day and I knew it was something I had to explain and soon will learn why I think it is the secret to wealth and freedom today. ... continue reading >>How do you see every situation?

So who is this Albert who came up with this brilliant quote? Don’t worry if you don’t know to much about him because I sure didn’t until I found his quote. He is one of the greatest Christians of his time and was also a brilliant philosopher, musician, theologian, and physician. He also built his own hospital and kept it well equipped and maintained through the proceedings from his concerts and lectures. He is definitely someone to listen to because of his selfless commitment to humanity that earned him a Nobel Peace Prize... continue reading >>Leadership & do you need it 2 be successful?

Who loves to shop at Wal – Mart, I do when it comes to small stuff, but then I moved to Target. It’s a bit higher quality products and sometimes a more variety. Well I mentioned Wal – Mart because today’s quote came from him. You see he knows what vision is and he has pocketed plenty of capital since Wal – Mart came to be known. In fact as of today his empire consists of over 3000 stores with sales over $104 Billion!!! He had a vision to make a discount shopping something big... continue reading >>Success before work... now that is a sight to see!

I love football and I am or was a packer fan, but that is another story and maybe another blog The reason why I mentioned this is because this week’s quote came from a person, Vince Lombardi, who was the coach for the Green Bay Packers and led them to 5 NFL championships and to victory in the first two Super Bowls. So he is no novice when it comes to success. He literally turned a team that was accustomed to defeat to... continue reading >>
The weight between Practice & Preaching

“An ounce of practice is worth more than tons of preaching.” – Mahatma Candhi This quote came from a great leader of his country, Mahatma Candhi. He was the leader of the Indian Nationalist movement against British Rule. He is esteemed internationally for his doctrine of nonviolence to achieve political and social progress. When he started challenging the government for becoming an advocate for racial discrimination it resulted in a jail sentence yet he kept on fighting. Thus the reason why I used this quote by him. It is strange how simple this quote... continue reading >>
