Dr. Willie Jolley’s principle to win BIG today “Bloom Where You Are Planted”
I want you to know that history and black history is within your grasp. See, I recently shared that a few years ago I was honored to be named a black history maker of today because I was the first black president of the National Speakers Association DC chapter. I was first black person elected to the board of directors for the National Speakers Association, and I was the first black chair of the Speaker Hall of Fame Leadership Committee. And last year I became the first African American man to be a recipient of the Cavit Award, which is the highest award in the speaking industry. I shared that I believe that history and black history is not about the past, but also about today.
I also want to let you know that you potentially are a history maker. Yeah, it could be a history maker in your life. Because you might be the first one in your family to go to college. Or the first one to start a business or the first one to become a millionaire. You might be a history maker because you decided to go back to school at an old age. You might be a history maker because you decided to do something set a goal and you achieved. Whatever it is, I’m encouraging you to pursue excellence and bloom where you’re planted. You are a history maker in the making. And you were born to make a difference. Do it today. Be excellent. Give all you got and go with everything within you to be the best you you can be.
