誰給你機會？
有一個年輕人特别信仰上帝，他相信上帝肯定也會在他最困難的時候出現並帮助他。
一次，这個年輕人所在的村莊發生水災，整個村子都難逃厄運。村民們紛紛逃生，只有虔誠的年輕人沒走。年轻人想，我这麼相信上帝，上帝肯定會救我的，於是他爬上了屋頂。
不久，大水浸過了屋頂，有一只木舟經過，叫年輕人一起逃生。年輕人說：“不用啦，上帝會來救我的！”於是木舟就離他而去。
片刻之間，河水已浸到他的膝蓋。這時，有艘汽艇經過，拯救尚未逃生者。救援人員儘量說服年輕人。年輕人拒絕地說：“不必啦，上帝一定會救我的。”汽艇只好到別處進行拯救工作。
半晌之後，洪水高漲，已至年輕人的肩膀。此時，有架直升機放下軟梯來救年輕人。年輕人死也不肯上機，說：“別擔心我啦，上帝會救我的！”直升機也只好離去。
這時一個浪頭打來，年輕人被卷入了水中，再也没有浮上来了。
終於，年輕人見到了上帝。他非常不滿的對上帝說：“亏我对您这麼信任，在我最危難的時候，您怎麼能見死不救呢？”
上帝微笑著對年輕人說：“年輕人，我何曾見死不救，你身陷水災，我送木舟給你，你不要；以爲你嫌棄，改了汽艇給你，你又不賞臉；最後還以貴客待你，特地派直升機去接你，但你又不領情。年輕人啊，你要我怎樣幫助你啊？”
啟示：
親愛的朋友，很多時候，不是我們沒有機會的成功，而是不去認同那是個機會，三番四次找藉口來推掉它。我們到底有多少機會可丟棄呢？

The 4 E's of Leadership
The 4 E's of Leadership
Energy - Individuals with energy love to "go, go, go." These people possess boundless energy and get up every day ready to attack the job at hand. High energy people move at 95 miles-per-hour in a 55 mile-per-hour world. What can stop them from that?
Energizers - know how to spark others to perform. They outline a vision and get people to carry it out. Energizers know how to get people excited about a cause or a crusade. They are selfless in giving others the credit when things go right, but quick to accept responsibility when things go awry. It will be really helpful if the application is positive.
Edge - Those with edge are competitive types. They know how to make the really difficult decisions, such as hiring, firing and promoting, never allowing the degree of difficulty to stand in their way. Decisive doesn't mean to be dominated.
Execute - The key to the entire model. Without measurable results, the other "E's" are of little use. Executers recognize that activity and productivity are not the same and are capable of converting energy and edge into action and results. It's so important that a leader can "Walk the talk" and "Talk the walk"!
“ Don't manage - lead change before you have to.”
John F. (Jack) Welch
The Former Chairman & CEO of General Electric Company
