Mission Statement:
I will never see problems, only challenges which can be overcome in time. I will touch people where they are. I will prioritize and determine what are the essentials for success. I will tell people what I know and qualify anything I believe is only my intuition. I will learn to focus my highly creative mind on activities which can bring immediate benefit to me and those in my sphere of influence. I will provide a model to the entire world of how age or any other potential handicap can be a stimulus for action and achievement. I will stand tall even when I don't have the tangible proof that I should do so. I will always write and speak from my heart, and let my finances take care of themselves. I will become the great writer and speaker that has always been bubbling inside of me, and thus make the world a better place because I passed through. I will intently pay attention to problems (mine and others') which, if properly perceived, offer opportunities to serve and prosper. I will always believe in the God-given ability of anyone and everyone on this planet to right wrongs and better their circumstance by simply changing their focus from deprivation to appreciation. I will acknowledge that my character has some gaping holes which must be tackled tick by tick, day by day, until my attributes far outnumber my deficiencies. I will always think of how my mentors would handle challenges and mirror, to the best of my ability, what I believe they would do in my circumstances. I will master how to love and respect people of all stripes.
