Vince Lombardi sobre el amor
Mis jugadores y mis asociados no tienen por que gustarme, pero como lider tengo que amarlos. El amor es lealtad, el amor es espiritu de equipo, el amor respeta la dignidad del individuo. En esto consiste la fuerza de cualquier organizacion.
Vince Lombardi
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the
things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off
the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade
winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
-Mark Twain
The future depends on what we do now
“The future depends on what we do in the present.”
Mahatma Gandhi
“Our main business is not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to
do what lies clearly at hand.”
Thomas Carlyle
What I do today will shape what tomorrow looks like.
‘Someday in the distant future our grandchildren’s grandchildren will develop a new equivalent of our classrooms. They will spend many hours in front of boxes with fires glowing within. May they have the wisdom to know the difference between light and knowledge.’
– Plato, (Discourse on Future Learning)
Persistence
Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education alone will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.
First they ignore you
”First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.”
~ Mahatma Gandhi “
Failure comes only after one gives up
Failure comes only after one gives up. If slim to none are the odds of
winning, they might be worth taking. For we can always get bigger –
bigger in ability; bigger in experience; bigger in wisdom; bigger in
faith.
“Each player must accept the cards life deals him or her. But once they are in hand, he or she alone must decide how to play the cards in order to win the game.”
Voltaire 1694-1778, Historian and Writer
Donors don’t give to institutions…
“Donors don’t give to institutions. They invest in ideas and people in whom they believe.”
–G.T. Smith
