What Dr. Seuss knew about Thinking and Leadership
.......Oh the things you could be thinking if only you'd try!"
A must read book on persistence and commitment is Dr. Suess' "Green Eggs & Ham.
Dr. Suess was genius at both writing and drawing but he also knew something about one of the major keys to success........
Choosing to use your Mind!
Dr. Seuss also once remarked that...."You can get help from teachers, but you are going to have to learn a lot by yourself, sitting alone in a room.”
Another one of my favorite authors, John Maxwell, in his book "How Successful People Think" gives "11 ways that successful people are different than unsuccessful people."
Effective leaders choose to spend time on a regular basis thinking about..... - the Big-Picture
- how Focused they are
- their Creativity level
- Reality
- Strategy
- unlimited Possibilities
- Reflection
- rejecting most popular "wisdom"
- Sharing their thoughts
- being Unselfish
- the Bottom-Line
Deciding to think intentionally is vital to the development of strong family influence so go deep with this one.......water & fertilize this decision well with information and lessons learned from failure.As Teddy Giesel would say.....
“And will you succeed? Yes indeed, yes indeed! Ninety-eight and three-quarters percent guaranteed!”
