Great session with the Alpha group, sparked me into thoughts about leadership at the moment. I have often thought it's your bloodyminded stubbornness that marks the MDHUB Mds. Got an e-mail this morning that included a quote from Calvin Coolridge which seemed to fit the bill.
Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'Press On' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.
Calvin Coolidge30th president of US (1872 - 1933)
Obviously you need to know where you are "pressing on" to but most of you do.
