The task of the leader is to get his people from where they are to where they have not been. The public does not fully understand the world into which it is going.

Thomas Edison had great visions (for lights, music players, movies, etc.) but he knew they didn't count until he could make them work. His statement that creativity is 99% perspiration makes that point. Consider how much time he spent trying to make a synthetic rubber material for tires and never stopped trying but he never succeeded.
Be yourself. Hillary Clinton, you have a great vision for our country. You know the policy, you have good judgment that springs from that.

So, just go talk about that. Forget the script, forget everything else. Just be Hillary Clinton. Be yourself.

[Seeds Are Small.] Becoming a force of nature doesn't mean that all of our aspirations must be "grand." First steps are often small, and initial visions that focus energy effectively often address immediate problems. What matters is engagement in the service of a larger purpose rather than lofty aspirations that paralyze action. Indeed, it's a dangerous trap to believe that we can pursue onlhy "great visions."
It is hard to follow one great vision in this world of darkness and of many changing shadows. Among those men get lost.
F8 And Be There! For years, this was the cry of the photojournalist. It meant that 90% of a great photo was being in the right place at the right time. True, it was simplistic, but in the Age of Photoshop, this maxim is too often forgotten. No matter how much you play with the bits and bytes, the best images always start out with a great vision, clearly and cleanly seen.
There can be no conquest to the man who dwells in the narrow and small environment of a groveling life, and there can be no vision to the man the horizon of whose vision is limited by the bounds of self.

The path is not easy, the climbing is rugged and hard, but the glory at the end is worthwhile.
