Stretch Your Thinking

I just arrived in San Antonio. This is one of my favorite cities. Tonight, it's to bed early. Tomorrow, it's the River Walk.

On the plane down here, I started re-reading a great John Maxwell book called Thinking for a Change (as you may know, I'm a huge fan of leadership books -- and John Maxwell is the best).

I like to keep good books and re-read them. Often, I get more out of them the second time around (and this is no exception). One of the things Maxwell does is list the people who have "stretched his thinking." I decided to do the same.

Here's the list of people who have stretched my thinking ...

...Keep in mind that the people on this list are people who have stretched my thinking. Some of these folks are famous and some aren't. Here goes:

John Maxwell - Leadership
Mike Murdoch - Wisdom
John Dunagan - Class and Professionalism
Dale Seley - Servanthood
Ronald Reagan - Character
Lyn Nofziger - Humor and Kindness
Paul Wilson - Toughness
Tygh Bailes - Relationships
Harvey Mackay - Networking


... Who is stretching your thinking???
