Most of the time, our stories had to do with what was in the news and sports section of the paper. Other times, we had to pick some event out of the history of the school and talk about it. Looking back, I appreciate the lessons learned from what I thought was a tramatic experience because it does break the ice in a social setting. Very interesting topic. Thanks. Cheers. Skip,

]]> Comment on Manage Your Angst by AvaCowan http://blog.bodybuilding.com/skiplacour/2007/07/24/manage-your-angst/#comment-283262 Tue, 24 Jul 2007 23:09:01 +0000 http://blog.bodybuilding.com/skiplacour/2007/07/24/manage-your-angst/#comment-283262 Now this is a post! I was having the most unmotivated day possible. I just put one foot in front of the other and did my two workouts. I was "feeling" unmotivated..but I have found that doing it anyway is the best way to change those feelings. It took all day, but I finally "feel" better. If I would have based my workouts on how I was feeling I wouldn't have even gone to the gym. So, you are right, a lot can change in a day. Thanks for the great post!! Now this is a post!

Great leaders asume the responsability of their actions, and learn from them. Very well said, leaders are made from decisions.

Being in the military leadership is definetly aquired. There are some NCO's that are definetly not Leaders. Because like you said they didnt step up and become one, they stepped back and watched everyone else. Your absolutely right. Being in the military leadership is definetly aquired.
