Words To Chew On...

"Discipline yourself and others won't need to.
Never lie, cheat, or steal...
and earn the right to be proud and confident."
-----John Wooden (legendary basketball coach and leader)

Today you will have choices to make, deadlines to meet and temptations to you will flirt with. What you do when these opportunities present themselves will have a very lasting impact in the direction you take in your life.

What if you were determined to earn the right to be proud of the person you are becoming through making a series of decisions where integrity ruled? What kind of change do you think you can make relationally if other people saw you make, not the easy choice, but the right one?

It's not the spotlight moments that make the person. What makes a leader worth following and a person worth knowing is what they do is the in between moments of life. What you do today when know one knows what you are doing and the little things you do to add value to people, may be the loudest thing you say today.

Heart and Soul,
BAG
