Two lessons spring to mind immediately:

* "If you shit in water, it will float to the top & probably stink." = If you lie/cheat/deceive/steal, the truth will come out.
* "If you have your legs to two different boats, you'll eventually fall in the water." = Focus.

My father, retired USAF Colonel fighter pilot, alongside my mother gave me constant advice without me knowing it. They live their lives as one large example that I am proud to attempt to follow.

Leadership Lesson – Never ask someone to do something, large or small, that you wouldn't do yourself.

The lessons my dad taught me are pretty much innumerable, but two are distinct: 1) work ethic…outwork everyone, and 2) whatever vocation your choose, make sure you love it. You spend way too much time doing it. The money will take care of itself.

Hi, I have only just discovered this site. Thank you for all the amazing post. This site is definitely going on my Favorites. From my father I learnt the importance of humility in leadership and to always be well prepared. A very good friend gave me one of the best advice in life and leadership – plan and prepare as if everything is dependent on you, pray as everything is dependent on God.

My father never gave up on his first three sons, after a failed first marriage. He took responsibility and made himself accountable for bringing into this world three sons (later to be five). He never complained about not having enough money, instead while being in the US Navy, he got a second job. When still it was not enough he got a third job. When my dad brought his family to San Diego in the late fifties it was with the idea to raise each one of his boys to finish college; they all have. Thanks Dad
