Motivational Power Quote

 

Believe You Can

“Leadership is getting players

to believe in you.

If you tell a teammate you’re ready to

play as tough as you able to,

you’ll better go out there and do it.

Players will see right through a phony,

and they can tell when you’re

not giving it all you got.”

Larry Bird, NBA Hall of Fame

 

 

As I see it. . . . . . . .

 

Believe you can . . . . and then do it

The most important judge of your actions is yourself. You know when you’re giving your best effort possible or when you’re just doing enough to get by.   

 

When you’re doing less then you need to do your cheating yourselves out of reaching your full potential and those who are counting on you.

 

People around you know when you’re giving your best and when you’re dogging it.

 

Personal effort is a habit of giving your best and it becomes a habit of personal excellence. A person of excellence will talk the talk and back it up by walking the walk.

 

Do what you do with excellence and give it your best in the things you do. Don’t quit on yourself stay on the course of personal excellence.

 

When you believe you can do and then you do it. When you do what you do with excellence you stand out in your profession. You will be recognized as a person of excellence by your peers and the people you do business and associate with.

My management style has always been to lead by example.  I've never asked an employee to do anything I wouldn't do myself, and we work together as a team.  Ultimately, it's a win/win for all involved.

Thanks to the SCS Second Chance Saturday posts of Carol Williams we can have a nice reminder of the words of wisdom shared by Lou.  And it's nice to see some other friendly faces in the comments that once graced these pages and some that still do.

Starting off the day with this post, on an early Saturday morning, is a great way to start the day.

 

…and brings memories of the contributions of Lou Ludwig to our lives through Active Rain.
