Creating Value

As part of the online course they ask you what value can you create? That got me to start thinking. In fact that is probably the reason why they ask that question right in the beginning of the course cause they want you to start thinking. What do you have to offer? What do you know or can show that will make other people believe you and come back for more?

As I watch history being made today, and as the world watches while the 44th President of the United States being sworn in, I think about the journey of Barrack Obama. His has been an incredible journey and his passion has ignited the nation and the entire world.

They look up to him for leadership and to provide direction. He brings with him this sense of calm, making you feel that you are in the right hands. All during the campaigns, he spoke with conviction, he was consistent in his message and what grabbed every one's attention was his sincerity. People seemed to trust him and they believed in him and that is what got him elected. He has value. His next 4 years will be a test but the people have put their faith in him.

Taking an example from Obama - the message is you have value when you are consistent with your message, your sincerity shows and you believe in what you are doing.

Now that I have figured that part out - lets gets to work on the details.
