Scott Schwab:
Today's quote revolves around leadership and the principle of leading others. My personal opinion is that we must lead ourselves before we lead others, but this quote can also show the value of a parenting or mentor relationship.
"Pull a string and it will follow you wherever you go, however, if you push a string, it will go nowhere."
-Dwight D. Eisenhower-
I believe in leadership, one must take the first steps in the right direction to show what others should do. All to often we say "do as I say, not as I do." When we take the time to pull others up rather than try to push them here or there, we learn how to lead and more importantly, what people are in need of. Personal growth is developed through personal choice. As we exhibit choice, we develop character and as we develop character, we develop self through thought and action.
