Without initiative, leaders are simply workers in leadership

Summary

This quote emphasizes the importance of initiative for leaders. It suggests that without taking initiative, leaders become mere followers or workers in their positions of authority. Initiative refers to the ability to proactively take actions and drive projects forward. True leaders are not just assigned a leadership role, but actively take charge, make decisions, and inspire others to achieve goals. By using their initiative, leaders can effectively guide and influence their team, creating a meaningful impact and fostering success.

In a time of tight budgets, difficult choices have to be mad

In a time of tight budgets, difficult choices have to be made. We must make sure our very limited resources are spent on priorities. I believe we should have no higher priority than investing in our children's classrooms and in their future.

There are so many opportunities in life, that the loss of two or three capabilities is not necessarily debilitating. A handicap can give you the opportunity to focus more on art, writing, or music.

...and yet, though desirous to be gone, she could not quit the mansion-house, or look an adieu to the cottage, with its black, dripping and comfortless veranda, or even notice through the misty glasses the last humble tenements of the village, without a saddened heart. Scenes had passed in Uppercross which made it precious. It stood the record of many sensations of pain, once severe, but now softened; and of some instances of relenting feeling, some breathings of friendship and reconciliation, which could never be looked for again, and which could never cease to be dear. She left it all behind her, all but the recollection that such things had been.

When we meet real tragedy in life, we can react in two ways

When we meet real tragedy in life, we can react in two ways - either by losing hope and falling into self-destructive habits, or by using the challenge to find our inner strength. Thanks to the teachings of Buddha, I have been able to take this second way.

You fall into my arms. You are the good gift of destruction's path, When life sickens more than disease. And boldness is the root of beauty. Which draws us together.
