The Bible: Jonah, Chapter 3: Basically God had Jonah swallowed by a whale because, among other things, he was not practicing what he was preaching! A leader must do what he encourages others to do. People do what they SEE you do, not what you SAY (don't believe me?...look at children:-)
Og Mandino: "This day I will make the best day of my life. This day I will drink every minute until its full. I will savor its taste and give thanks. I will maketh every hour count and each minute I will trade only for something of value."
Kevin Hall (Aspire): "Sometimes the marble we chisel as we face hurdles and challenges in our individual lives is malleable, and sometimes its hard. However difficult, being able to see what is ahead unleashes the ability to persevere and prevail."
Maxwell (Failing Forward): Business author Jim Zabloski writes, "Contrary to popular belief, I consider failure a necessity in business. If you're not failing at least five times a day, you're probably not doing enough. The more you do, the more you fail. The more you fail, the more you learn. The more you learn, the better you get. The operative word here is learn. If you repeat the same mistake two or three times, you are not learning from it. You must learn from your own mistakes and from the mistakes of others before you."
