Theodore Roosevelt Quote

I used to lay victim to circumstances and wonder why some people had great jobs and careers while I always had to settle for the average. I learned hard work from my Mom and Dad, learned to clean before I played, learned to “Do things right the first time”, I always ended up on the average side of life though and at the time I was content because I figured that was where I was supposed to be, those were the cards I was played in this game called life.. What I began to find out upon meeting amazing people and reading hundreds of books is that you become the average of the people that you most spend time with and that you can become what you DECIDE to become. I am a very reserved and introverted person, I’m very quiet…. but I have learned to spend hours upon hours daily with great human beings from the Bible as well as great business leaders from the last century and by doing that I have learned and been able to apply principles that they teach which in turn help me to lead and inspire others. Here are some words from the conversation I had with Theodore Roosevelt this morning
