Why I Believe in Bad Bad Apples…
It is amazing to me that from the smallest particle comes the power to change the world. Potential energy is bound up in the nucleus of the Atom. However, it is only when the atom is split can the true and full power be understood. I believe that the same potential for success exists within each of us. Just like the atom, we can change the world only when our energy becomes kinetic. What transports us from potential to kinetic? The answer is inspiration. I have been inspired by those who touched my life, my friends, my family and strangers. Many have taken the time to assist, encourage me and challenge me as I pursue my next success. Others may never know the impact of their lives on me. The sharing their life’s story has moved me in immeasurable ways. I believe that my mission in life is to provide the spark for others to experience success. It might be through my words, it might be through my actions or it might be just through my story. As the old Negro spiritual says, “…if I can help somebody along the way, then my living shall not be in vain.”
