A family that's a team....a legacy worth working towards..

     I just read this poem this morning and really liked it.  I hope you do, too.

I don't want fifteen minutes of fame.
I want a life.
I don't want to be a flash in the pan.
I want a career.
I don't want to grab all I can.
I want to selectively choose the best.
I don't want to sell a company.
I want to build one.
I don't want to date a model.
OK, so I do want to date a model.
Sue me.
But the rest of my goals are long term.
The result of day to day determination.
I stay steady.
I redefine the word consistency.
Along the way there will surely be
moments of brilliance.
I am, after all, me.
But the moments will add up to something greater.
A record of excellence.
A plaque in a hall.
My name on a sandwich.
A family that's a team.
I'll never look back with regret.
I will always believe in the ideal.
I hope to be remembered, not recalled.
And I hope to make a difference.
JUST DO IT.
