Way to go, Aaron! He wrote an amazing rags to riches post about Michael Jordan!
Way to go, Jykeith! He is not afraid to self-advocate!
Weeks 10 and 11 begin yesterday. Because we are learning about Stephen Covey's habits, the assignments are spread out over 2 weeks/modules. Weeks 10 and 11 are due together on Friday, March 17. Be sure to manage your time over the next 2 weeks -- test out the skills you learned in Week 4 and reviewed in Week 7! I recommend following the normal schedule and doing Week 10 by this Friday and Week 11 by the 17th.
Ready, learn, lead!

For the next two weeks, you will explore Stephen Covey's 7 Habits of the Most Effective People. As you learn about each habit, remember to connect your answers to the real world. Covey's habits are about being a well-rounded leader. I watched a documentary recently about a man who used Covey's habits (of course not by name) to lead his men out of an ambush. Master Sergeant Scott Ford received the Silver Star after serving in Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. I encourage you to read a quick synopsis of Ford's leadership and then to watch a documentary recounting what happened April 6, 2008. Listen for Covey's habits -- how did Ford lead his men? How did he lead himself? How did he help his men to survive?

Take a few minutes to see leadership in a crisis and renew your American spirit. In this day of division and strife, it is important to see an example of unity.
