“A leader is a dealer in hope”
Napoleon
“People want to be part of something larger than themselves.
They want to be part of something they’re really proud of, that they’ll fight for, sacrifice for, that they trust.”
Howard Schultz, Starbucks
“We can’t solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.”
Albert Einstein
Wow…What a past couple of days! I was unable to watch the inauguration live yesterday, but thanks to Dish Network I was able to record and watch it last night. These quotes just stuck out to me as I was thinking about what to discuss. I am a person who will always try to give credit where credit is due. With that being said I must give our President Barack Obama credit. In my humble opinion he has given hope to this nation. He has provided many citizens the opportunity to be a part of something larger than themselves. Not that approval ratings equal success, but not since Reagan has a President entered office with a higher approval rating.
There are a lot of high expectations being pinned to this man. Not since FDR and possibly Reagan has a President entered office in the midst of a recession. Whether or not you voted for President Obama, now is not the time for us to be divided along party lines. It is a time for us to come together as Americans and find a solution to the situation we find ourselves in. There will be a time, most likely in the near future, where we will be able to debate our convictions and beliefs, but for the sake of our nation, let’s put aside our differences and work together for a common good.
Until Next Time,
Heath
