Leading By Example

November 27, 2008 — 8 Comments

Today is a great gift.  A simple gift.  Today is a day where globally people are giving “thanks”.

It’s also an opportunity for all of us to lead by example, to show gratitude to much more than just yummy turkey, stuffing, and apple pie.  Perhaps lifestyle changes need to be made, sacrifices followed through with, compromises decided upon.

I consider today another opportunity to share what I’ve been given and to lead by example through my thanks.

I feel really inspired.

Are you leading by example in your “thanks” today?  I’m going to try.  And check this guy out too.

    Wow! That is awesome. That is leading by example at its finest. I wish some of the CEO's stateside would take a lesson. Maybe it would take the bad taste out of a lot of our mouths about business.

    Then again, maybe I need to constantly remind myself about this valuable lesson. :)

    Actually, the "Thanksgiving Day" celebration is far from global, but rather a purely American phenomenon. As an expat living in the UK, there is no acknowledgment of the things we Americans take for granted on the fourth Thursday of November.
