While at the airport in Chicago yesterday I was standing in line for a pizza slice. A little girl and her father were in front of me. She asked "Daddy, I want a piece all by myself." She looked about 5 or 6. Her father replied "Sweetheart, are you sure you can eat all that?" The little girl said "Daaaaaddddddd...I'm a lot bigger on the inside than the outside."
It was cute, but then on my last flight home, I kept thinking about it. And that is what character is all about. Being bigger on the inside.
So as we come home from our annual meeting and begin our new leadership roles remember that your character is your most important asset. Ask yourself, does your words match your actions? Do you follow through your assignments? If you promise to be somewhere, are you there? Can people trust your handshake as they would a legal contract?
Character is a choice, we create it every time we make a choice. As you make choices this year, you are continuing to build your character. " Be bigger on the inside than the outside!"
