“Nature has so much to teach us. This is what true leadership is about, not degrading someone, insulting someone or making them feel unwanted or unwelcome. This happens too often whether it is in our private lives or at the work place. Leadership means keeping the team together and making things flow. Not to slice and dice others because of the stress that comes with the territory.”

“Over the years of grassroots advocacy, I have learned: People want help, but they don’t want structure. People want leadership, but they resent authority. People want information, but they don’t understand it. People want strategy, but they panic when shown the reality. Most groups have at least one person who wants the glory, not the change. Most groups have a lot of sheep wandering without a true shepherd. This is why so many initiatives fail. Remember, chaos is what killed the dinosaurs.”

“Advocacy is a natural process that comes from within. It emerges when someone gets to the point where they are tired of witnessing the injustice imposed upon others and decide to do something about it. It is not something you can buy or pay for. It comes from the heart. That is where the fiercest warriors come from.”
