Success Think About

Developing the Next Generation of Rainmakers Success: Think about-If you can… I am inspired by words. The words may be in a poem, they may be a well-known quote from a writer or they may be from a song that energizes me. Occasionally, I want to share with you a quote, poem or lyrics that inspire me. Here is the first in this series. This is a poem about advice given by a father to his son.  But, the poem is more universal than that. It could be advice given by a senior lawyer to a junior lawyer. To learn a little more about this poem, read  :  Rudyard Kipling’s inspirational poem â€" ‘If’. There are several videos of Dennis Hopper reciting the poem. One of the first was when he appeared on a 1970 Johnny Cash show. It is hard to picture someone reciting a poem like this on television today. I practiced law for 37 years developing a national construction law practice representing some of the top highway and transportation construction contractors in the US.
