Welcome to iNADCO-MS blog!

As you are probably aware, the Coast Guard is moving to utilize more of the social media tools to help get the word out about who they are and all the great things that they do. Likewise, this is my attempt to do the same for the Coast Guard Auxiliary.

Please keep in mind, this iNADCO-MS blog is UNOFFICIAL (see Blog Disclaimer below). My focus here in this blog is to provide insightful information (I hope), motivation, and commentary about the goings-on in the Coast Guard Auxiliary. This blog will also serve as a means of keeping our membership up to date on happenings within the Member Services Directorate, as well as discussing and sharing relevant articles on a topic that I consider very important to our organization - leadership.

Please take a moment to subscribe to this blog (see the subscribe and bookmark buttons on the right) so you will get the most up to date information in the fastest possible time.

ENJOY!

From The Leadership Challange Blog - Being Persistent

OK - I'll admit it. With the holidays as an excuse, I am WAY BEHIND on my reading and blogging (hence the number of blog posts today - apologies to those who subscribed via email).

ANYWAY, as I was playing catch-up, I read this interesting article from the Leadership Challenge blog
entitled Mr. Persistent to Mr. President.

The article is about president-elect Obama, and how he persistently pursued various leadership principles. Irregardless of your political ideology, there is a goldmine of leadership tid-bits to be mined herein. No matter what aspect of you life we are talking about, persistence is a trait that will carry you far.

There area number noteworthy leadership lessons in the article - again, all politics aside.
As we begin our journey into 2009, I urge you to take away
some of the lessons from this article. "Walk the walk and talk the talk," refine your visions/goals, and pursue everything you do with passion.
