Daily Leadership Quote

Today's #leadership quote

“Some of us have great runways already built for us. If you have one, take off. But if you don’t have one, realize it is your responsibility to grab a shovel and build one for yourself and for those who will follow after you.” Amelia Earhart

It is easy to leave the difficult tasks for others to do and to bemoan the lack of resources as an excuse for not moving forward. Many will take that path. Taking ownership of your circumstances and what you do with them is much more difficult but also much more rewarding. There are many things that we take for granted today that would not be available if others had only followed the paths created by others. We would still be clothed in candlelight, or riding in horse drawn carts. Perhaps we would still believe the world to be flat. If instead we take ownership we get to control our destiny. Of course we will encounter failure along the way and at times be exhausted beyond belief but by continuing to press forward despite the challenges we can each accomplish great things while lighting the way for others to follow. Take ownership, create your own path and make a difference. The reward is great
