“If you set an example by being correct, who would dare to remain incorrect?” – Confucius

Throughout history, there have been countless men and women who have truly changed the world. Learning from their successes and failures is a sure way to help us achieve what they did (and perhaps even more). Finding a role model or mentor you admire is a great way to make significant changes in your life and in the lives of those around you. But don’t be daunted. You don’t have to look far and wide. Often, what you need may be right under your nose.

“You can’t wait for inspiration. You have to go after it with a club.” – Jack London
