Why?
Why are you here today?
The reality is we are not short on problems . . .
The Homeless
Climate Change
Crime
Education
Immigration
The Economy
We all have particular issues that  drive us. We call these things . . . Our purpose. Our mission. These are also our why . . .
Starting with Why? People don’t buy what you do.  They buy why you do it.
 
Racial inequality Was the issue . . .
“ one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.” Martin Luther King, Jr. - 1963
Was the issue . . . Leadership in Space
“ because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too.” John F. Kennedy - 1962
Both of these leaders had a result they wanted to achieve But they had a higher purpose, a why, that inspired others to achieve that result
If you take a man as he should be, you make him capable of becoming what he can be. Viktor Frankl - 1972
To take society as it should be, and make it capable of becoming what it can be. Our job is . . .
Because they did! Brian Gryth -  [email_address]  –  Twitter @briangryth
