When I heard the news of Steve Jobs passing, it was one of the most saddening moments for me. First of all, this is one of the greatest leaders of our time. Secondly, I consider him to be a great mentor. In fact, I have studied his life for years, and I model my visionary leadership after him. Immediately, my heart began to be saddened. However, that sadness soon gave way to celebration. We were fortunate to have an Einstein in our generation. One man dared to harness the powers of the imagination and created some of the greatest innovations in the world. One man dared to be different and changed the world. While my heart was heavy, I begin to think about the powerful legacy he leaves. Steve Jobs presence will be missed dearly. On the other hand, his products will continue to enrich our lives for generations to come. Steve Jobs I thank you for daring to believe the impossible. I thank you for your mentorship and for showing me that anything is possible. You will never be forgotten and the quality of your work will speak forever. My life has been greatly enriched by your life. Now, I celebrate your legacy and I make a decision to make an event greater difference in the world. Thank you for not taking no for an answer. Steve you were brilliant and you have allowed me to see my own brilliance. As we celebrate his life, I challenge you to ask yourself how you will change the world. Stop settling for mediocrity and start living a life that matters. You have so much to offer the world. Unleash the greatness on the inside of you! You CAN change the world! Become the Steve Jobs of your own destiny! It's your Season of Greatness!
Embracing Greatness!
