An individual’s ability to accomplish great things is limited by the hours in the day, resources, personal energy, and more. But a leader can inspire great accomplishments in an unlimited number of individuals.

Just one month ago, most of us would have described time as our adversary. Time is a limited commodity that infringes on our ability to do, achieve, and accomplish. We all wish for more and curse it when it is wasted. Time was the enemy that was stealing from us. But now, some time has passed, and our relationship with time has changed, evolved. Many of us are being given time to do things that…

My husband and I were recently having a conversation with another couple and reminiscing about fond memories and events. We were sharing stories of our history together as couples. The places that we had gone and the things that we had seen. They were the kind of stories that bring a smile to your face as you think of them. With smiles all around, there was a slight lull in the conversation as we all…
