Lessons from NALA

pay-it-forward

The North American Leadership Academy (NALA), shed light on some key issues.
I learned that “Life is not about being successful; it is about being significant.”
Brilliant. Insightful. Profound.

We become significant by doing things to help other people. By allowing them to
accomplish their goals.Today we measure success by wealth, position, social status and, unfortunately, by material trappings. We have this wrong. Success and significance should be synonymous — do for others, and make a lasting impact.

When was the last time you made a meaningful difference in someone elses life?
Try it — the rewards just keep on coming. Take small steps and pay it forward.
