Description

Only leaders who are tested become great. This episode is all about preparation. A little story by Dumas Malone about Thomas Jefferson and his first meeting to decide the organization of the University of Virginia. 

Many came forward with their interests and agendas. When Jefferson showed, he had prepared his ideas, budgets, recommended professors, and even architectural drawings. This was done by preparing. 

Consider the decisions you make in your life? Do you prepare or rely on past experiences? Past experiences should guide your preparation, not be the sole means of preparation. 

“By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.” Benjamin Franklin. 

The best leaders are passionate about their preparation process. Consistent preparation is the precursor to performance.
