"The world makes way for the man who knows where he is going." Ralph Waldo EmersonLead UP!; Equipping Today's Youth to Lead with Impact contains 10 short, easy-to-read motivational messages that will encourage, equip and empower young people to lead with impact. Each chapter contains introspective questions to help young people formulate a working plan to live their best lives. Many of today's youth desire to experience victory in life. They want to make a contribution to the world that makes an impact and leaves a lasting impression. The problem is they can allow the divisive voices of others, the distractions of today's social media, the diversion of life's busyness and the discontentment of the world's bitterness, to keep them from living their best life. It is possible for young people to live life in a way that makes them feel alive and adds value to the lives of others. This book is all about what it takes to lead to impact. It requires commitment, consistency and intentionality. If you are a young person who is tired of the status quo, losing when you should be winning, following instead of leading or falling into the same tired ruts over and over again, then Lead UP! is for you. Don't worry if everything does not happen as quickly as you want. Don't throw in the towel if you do not get support from the people you thought would support you. Don't think doing things differently won't work today because you failed yesterday. If you are a young person who wants to live at maximum capacity, or if you are a mother, father, teacher, mentor, pastor, coach, youth leader, grandparent, aunt or uncle of a young person who you want to see live at maximum capacity, then Lead UP! makes the perfect gift. Young People. Get Ready. Get Set. Lead UP! And Live Your Best Life.
