CALLING ALL LEADERS…

Posted by PerseveringOne on November 20th, 2007

Have you ever asked yourself: “What can I do? I’m not happy with things as they are but what can I do?” Well, we are looking for people who are asking themselves those questions. There is something that you can do. Every great event started with one person.

Have you ever gone to a ball game and seen the wave move through a crowd wondering how it started? I experienced this phenomena a couple of weeks ago. A young woman in line asked if people around her wanted to start the wave. Some shrugged their shoulders and others expressed embarrasment that she was interested in getting it started. So with the help of a couple of people around her she said 1, 2, 3 and they threw up their hands shouting “Whoo”. After ten to twelve failures, she managed to succeed sending the wave around the corner over 1,000 feet from us. Several minutes later it came around the corner back to us. If she would have quit after one or two attempts, she would have failed. But, she continued to fail until she SUCCEEDED!

This is a simplistic but very effective way to demonstrate that LOOSERS QUIT when they fail & WINNERS FAIL until they SUCCEED! If she listened to the naysayers who originally showed their reluctance to get things started, she would have failed. But she kept trying until we all saw the dramatic results.
