“If you are not making much of a living,
chances are, you are not making much of a difference, either.”

Mark LeBlanc – Professional Speaker

 

Coaching Point: This quote is kind of “in your face” and it certainly doesn’t apply for teachers and others who have choosen low paying careers and yet are making a huge difference. But some people seem to think that making a good living will somehow “spoil” their making a difference. You can be financially successful and also be a good steward of your wealth to enhance your ability to make a difference. Mother Teresa generated millions in income and donations to further her cause. Make sure you are not using a need to make a difference as an excuse to ignore earning a good living.
