vision

Create a vision so great that if God is not in it, it will doom to fail.

ambiguity

Leaders don't avoid ambiguity. They thrive on it! After all, if everything is so crystal clear, then we don't need to communicate.

Breakthrough

Looking back at my life/trail, what breakthrough contributions have I made to society? Is being a leader in my company or in my religious or adequate? The web defines breakthrough as follows. So the question is - have I contributed a breakthrough act/event?

Breakthrough. 1. an offensive thrust that penetrates and carries beyond a defensive line in warfare.2. an act or instance of breaking through an obstacle breakthrough agreement. 3. a sudden advance especially in knowledge or techniquebreakthrough. 4. a person's first notable success.

I remember the poem:

I am only one, but still I am one.

I cannot do everything, but still I can do something;

and because I cannot do everything,

I will not refuse to do something that I can do.

Tools for my Journey - HALFTIME

I am still clueless where I got this urge and bug for reading.

Maybe from my parents, who are both professionals in their own craft. Maybe from the lack of reading material when I was growing up. Inside of my heart and head, I simply could not recall the time this passion kicked in.

But, look at the books, journals that I have amassed so far in my 37 years of existence.

The questions are:

1. Have I become a better servant of a living God?

2. Have i contributed to society?

3. Have I made the lives of those around me better?

4. Have I become a good role model for my kids?

5. Have I become a better man?

6. Have I achieved what I dreamt of as a kid?

I dont know. I am still midway in my life. Like in any sporting event, there is a halftime huddle where the coach and the players re-examine their game strategy, the opponents, the adjustments to be made in order to win the battle.

Maybe its time for me to do the same? Thoughts!
