Leadership is never inherited; sometimes learned , always earned.
Simplicity is not an action plan; it's a state of mind. Keep courage in your thoughts and dignity in your actions. Do not trust the riddle of fear over the courage of action. Do not believe in the mystery of magic over the power of belief.

Driving down the wrong road and knowing it,
The fork years behind, how many have thought

Empty, strike out across the fields; and how many
Are still mazed among dock and thistle,
Seeking the road they should have taken?
