Motivational Quote of the Day

by Brian McNeany

In an effort to increase the frequency of posts here at Leadership Training Skills, I’m starting a new regular segment where I post a quote from a famous leader (present or past) to help inspire and motivate us all in our day-to-day lives.

The first quote comes from one of my favorite political leaders in history…

“I felt as if I were walking with destiny, and that all my past life had been but a preparation for this hour and this trial.”

“I was sure I should not fail.”

- Winston Churchill (written in his memoirs), regarding his election as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom in 1940
