Interesting quote from "Uncommon: Finding Your Path to Significance"

Hi - I'm reading "Uncommon: Finding Your Path to Significance" by Tony Dungy, Nathan Whitaker and wanted to share this quote with you.

"Keys for Developing Your Core 1. Remember that what you do when no one is watching matters. 2. The means matter as much as the ends, if not more. 3. Hang in there. Character is revealed through adversity. 4. Often we grow as much through the little things as we do through the big ones. 5. Truth is critical. Being truthful is too. 6. Don't rationalize your way around honesty. 7. Don't blow your own horn. 8. Don't be falsely modest; you have amazing gifts. Just recognize that others do too. 9. You are important, but not indispensable. The same goes for others. See yourself as a significant part of the process. 10. Be careful what you do with your resources, gifts, time, and talents. You've been entrusted with them. 11. Some of the most rewarding times in life are when you have to stand alone, even if you are uncomfortable doing so. 12. Life is hard. Courage is essential. 13. Never give up. Never."

Got to watch this movie again.

There’s a scene in Lawrence of Arabia where one man puts out a match with his fingers, and doesn’t flinch. Another man watching tries to do the same, and yells in pain.

“It hurts! What’s the trick?” he asks.

“The trick is not minding that it hurts,” the first man says.

Mark Twain - Courage

I have spent most of today - January 1, 2019 - reviewing the past year's wins and losses and pondering the new year and it's vast opportunities.

Sometime today I came across this Mark Twin quote. It is one of my favorite quotes and think it is worth reposting.

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."

It’s not the fall that kills you, it’s the landing

The Right Stuff

Dec 12, 1953, I went duck hunting early morning, test flew X-1A past MACH 2, tumbled on all 3 axes, was knocked out by hitting my head on the canopy, recovered, went home, changed into black tie, went w/ Glennis to a banquet in LA & gave a talk. I was tired @seanhannity @nytimes

This morning I am going through various materials I have collected this year getting ready for strategic planning review next week. Came across this slide from a presentation I attended last February.
