This is a quote by William Penn, founder of the colony of Pennsylvania and a member of The Society of Friends also known as Quakers. I landed on it as I was doing research on the two brothers that built my home in the late 1700's who were also Quakers. It seems a worthwhile philosophy to aspire to. #leadershipmindset #kindnessmatters …see more

“Dear Daughter, I Want You to Fail.” Writer Lyz Lenz once penned an excellent piece that led with that brilliant headline. The article is all about how Lenz's parents taught her to deal with failure at an early age, to learn from mistakes and bounce back stronger than ever. She contrasts that with “snowplow parents," who try to always smooth their children's path and make life easier. “A life lived without failure is not success, it’s mediocrity,” argued Lenz. “I don’t want to teach my daughter to quit or that I will pave her way. I want to teach her to pull back, reformulate and try again and again and again.” Great reasoning, and excellent points. But without that powerful headline, the majority of the audience would never have read the article. Want to reach a larger audience? You've got to find a way to grab their attention. Because your message may be powerful, but it won't do any good unless you can get people to listen.
