Imagine What You Could Accomplish



Imagine what you could accomplish if you enrolled others into your dream.
The world changes when people of vision and commitment
create an infectious enthusiasm for their ideas.
What is your great idea whose time has come?

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful,
committed people can change the world.
Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.

But idealism allied with pragmatism,
with rolling up your sleeves and making the world bend a bit,
is very exciting.
It's very real.
It's very strong.
- Bono

Individual commitment to a group effort -
that is what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, a civilization work.
- Vince Lombardi
