Change Starts Local: Leadership is Born Through Action

Leadership Image

Dear friends and fellow dreamers,

Leadership is often born through local action—the kind that starts small but has the power to resonate far beyond our immediate circles. Growing up, I dreamed of playing for the Indianapolis Colts, while my friend Joey Burrow imagined joining the NBA. Though neither dream became reality, these memories remind us how leadership often unfolds in unexpected ways.

The Power of Local Action

Leadership isn't something that appears overnight—it grows from our actions, especially on a local level. Whether it's volunteering, participating in community projects, or simply stepping up when needed, leadership begins when we choose to act. Through these choices, we inspire others and pave the way for broader change.

Joey Burrow: A Beacon of Determination

Growing up with Joey Burrow, I saw firsthand how dedication can shape a leader. He wasn't handed success—he worked for it. Joey's journey to becoming an NFL quarterback is proof that grit and perseverance can elevate you to unimaginable heights. His rise from small-town dreams to the NFL is a testament to hard work and local action.

Laugh at Yourself, Then Lead

Laughing at Childhood Dreams

True leadership involves the ability to laugh at yourself. Our naive dreams teach us valuable lessons, even if they don’t come true. It’s the unexpected twists and turns that shape us into leaders. Each failure, each redirection, is an opportunity to grow and connect with others on a deeper level.

Defining Your Own Path Forward

As we move forward, let's take inspiration from people like Joey—not because he’s now a quarterback for the Cincinnati Bengals, but because he never stopped pushing forward. Your leadership journey is uniquely yours. Embrace the small victories, the setbacks, and every act that helps your community thrive.

Lead by Example

Real leadership starts with personal action. You don’t need a title or a stage—just the courage to step forward, inspire others, and create positive change where you are.

Thank you for your commitment to leading by example, embracing challenges, and laughing along the way. Let’s continue learning from those who remind us that leadership begins with simple, meaningful actions.

Sincerely,

Killian Yates
