Seeds of Greatness

Westlake captures 2011 State Title:

Congratulations Coach Chuck Nowland, Asst. Coach Lane Grigg, and our Westlake Chaps Girls Golf Team for winning their second consecutive 5A UIL State Championship. Texas has the best high school golf in the nation, and this was a super accomplishment.

In that vein, I recently went back through some notes I made in the early 80s, when I was just out of college. One group of notes was from Denis Waitley's famous book, Seeds of Greatness (Simon & Schuster, 1983). In this book, Waitley outlines what he believes to be ten attributes, or seeds, that can lead to a fulfilling life.

Let's take a look at each of these over the next ten posts:

1. The seed of self-esteem
2. The seed of creativity
3. The seed of responsibility
4. The seed of wisdom
5. The seed of purpose
6. The seed of communication
7. The seed of faith
8. The seed of adaptability
9. The seed of perseverance
10. The seed of perspective
