“As I age, I gain perspective on the illusion of wealth and status as forms of fulfillment. I don’t want my life to be measured by dollars and cents, or the number of books I’ve authored. Rather, I want to be remembered by the lives that I’ve touched. I want live a life that counts. With each day that passes, I feel a greater sense of urgency to make sure my times and energy are invested in developing leaders.” John Maxwell. (Ref ‘A Life That Counts’ by Dr.John C. Maxwell).
