If we can individually accomplish more than we believe we can, imagine what we can do as a team. We have not even scratched the surface.
“Others have seen what is and asked why. I have seen what could be and asked why not.” —Pablo Picasso, Pablo Picasso: Metamorphoses of the Human Form: Graphic Works, 1895–1972
As the quote says—If you dream it, you will figure out how to make it true. We all have our goals, professional and personal; what is stopping you from accomplishing them?
“We need men who can dream of things that never were.” —John F. Kennedy
JFK was a master at this. He set a goal of getting a man on the moon. He made a public declaration about it and a few years later it happened. He was not around when it happened, but what a legacy.
Imagine what others have dreamt and made real. What are you dreaming about? What will you do to make it real?
Have a great weekend.

About Friday Food for Thought (FFfT)
I frequently attend conferences and retreats on entrepreneurship and leadership and while I am away, the J2 team picks up the slack, allowing me to learn to be better at what I do. I wanted to share what I was learning with my team, so I created the weekly FFfT emails in November of 2015 and have been writing them ever since.
Before long, the J2 staff began sharing the FFfT emails with their friends and family and now other leaders have asked to be included, which led to the creation of this newsletter. I hope you enjoy!
