I am currently reading Leadershift by John Maxwell
There is a great quote from Walter E Fauntroy that I just have to share. Hope you enjoy!!
“The past is yours. Learn from it. The future is yours. Fulfill it. Knowledge is yours. Use it. Cancer is yours. Cure it. Racism is yours. End it. Injustice is yours. Correct it. Sickness is yours. Heal it. Ignorance is yours. Banish it. War is yours. Stop it. Hope is yours. Confirm it. America is yours. Save it. The world is yours. Serve it. The dream is yours. Claim it.
Don’t be blinded by prejudice, disheartened by the times, or discouraged by the system. Face the system. Challenge it. Change it. Confront it. Correct it. Don’t let anything paralyze your mind, tie your hands or defeat your spirit. Take the world – not to dominate it, but to deliver it. Not to exploit it, but to enrich it – take your dream and inherit the earth!!”
