The Leaders We Revere And The Businesses That Last Are Generally Not The Result Of A Narrow Pursuit Of Popularity Or Personal Advancement, But Of Devotion To Some Bigger Purpose. That’s The Hallmark Of Real Success. The Other Trapping Of Success Might Be The By Product Of This Larger Mission, But It Can’t Be The Central Thing.

We Have Been Told We Cannot Do This By A Chorus Of Cynics. They Will Only Grow Louder And More Dissonant In The Weeks To Come. We’ve Been Asked To Pause For A Reality Check; We’ve Been Warned Against Offering The People Of This Nation False Hope. But In The Unlikely Story That Is America, There Has Never Been Anything False About Hope.

That’s What Building A Body Of Work Is All About. It’s About The Daily Labor, The Many Individual Acts, The Choices Large And Small That Add Up Over Time, Over A Lifetime To A Lasting Legacy. It’s About Not Being Satisfied With The Latest Achievement, The Latest Gold Star, Because The One Thing I Know About A Body Of Work Is That It’s Never Finished. It’s Cumulative. It Deepens And Expands With Each Day You Give Your Best. You May Have Setbacks And You May Have Failures, But You’re Not Done. You Haven’t Even Started.

Before We Get Too Depressed About The State Of Our Politics, Let’s Remember Our History. The Great Debates Of The Past, All Stirred Great Passions. They All Made Somebody Angry, And At Least Once Led To A Terrible War. What Is Amazing, Is That Despite All The Conflict, Our Experiment In Democracy Has Worked Better Than Any Form Of Government On Earth.

We Too Often Let The Material Things Serve As Indicators That We’re Doing Well, Even Though Something Inside Us Tells Us That Were Not Doing Our Best. That We Are Avoiding That Which Is Hard, But Also Necessary. That We Are Shrinking From Rather Than Vising To The Challenges Of The Age.

I’ve Come To Embrace The Notion That I Haven’t Done Enough In My Life. I’ve Come To Confirm That One’s Title, Even A Title Like President Of The United States, Says Very Little About How Well One’s Life Has Been Led. No Matter How Much You’ve Done Or How Successful You’ve Been, There’s Always More To Do, Always More To Learn, And Always More To Achieve.

If We Choose Only To Expose Ourselves To Opinions And Viewpoints That Are In Line To Our Own, We Become More Polarized, More Set In Our Own Ways. It Will Only Reinforce And Deepen The Political Divides In Our Country. But If We Choose To Actively Seek Out Information That Challenges Our Assumptions And Beliefs, Perhaps We Can Begin To Understand Where The People Who Disagree With Us Are Coming From.

We’ve Become Accustomed To Our Economic Dominance In The World, Forgetting That It Wasn’t Reckless Deals And Get Rich Quick Schemes That Got Us Where We Are, But Hard Work And Smart Ideas, Quality Products And Wise Investments.
