So often we hear people say the words: \u201cI hope that I\u2026.\u201d<\/em>To those words is an immediate response from great leaders: \u201cHope is not a plan<\/em>.\u201d These words beg a call for action \u2013 to move from simply wishing and hoping for something to an actionable response for that which is desired. It is in these brief feedback moments that great leaders teach and serve others to embrace\u00a0movement\u00a0<\/em>toward a dream rather than simply a speculation about it. It is a mindful shift from hope to attainment, from dreams to reality.<\/p>\n

Alexandra Trenfor<\/a>\u00a0writes: \u201cThe best teachers are those who show you where to look, but don\u2019t tell you what to see<\/em>.\u201d Great leaders serve others by opening their eyes and heart to possibilities they can create and dreams they can achieve.\u00a0Stephen Covey\u2019s<\/a>\u00a0definition of leadership beautifully captures the role of great leaders: \u201cLeadership is communicating to people their worth and value so clearly that they come to see it in themselves<\/em>.\u201d As you serve others in helping them discover the magnificence of their gifts and life, may you remember and share with them the words of\u00a0Rumi<\/a>, 13th-century Persian Sunni Muslim poet, jurist and Islamic scholar: \u201cYou are not a drop in the ocean. You are an entire ocean in a drop<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n
