“Leadership is the art of influencing and directing men in such a way as to obtain their willing obedience, confidence, respect and loyal cooperation in order to accomplish a mission.”

“What this power is, I cannot say. All I know is that it exists…and it becomes available only when you are in that state of mind in which you know exactly what you want…and are fully determined not to quit until you get it.”

~Alexander Graham Bell

There are so many things we could be doing with our time, but I agree with the quote below; because when you get involved on a level bigger than yourself, it does energize you to do more…make it a wonderful day…

“The more you lose yourself in something bigger than yourself, the more energy you will have.”

~Norman Vincent Peale

“If you don’t like something change it; if you can’t change it, change the way you think about it.”

~Mary Engelbreit

Today’s quote reminds me that it is better to give than to receive. Giving of yourself, is many times the greatest gift you can give a person…and yourself…

“I don’t know what your destiny will be, but one thing I do know: the only ones among you who will be really happy are those who have sought and found how to serve.”

~Albert Schweitzer
