Lessons From A Dropout That Went Viral
Hi,
This
week, the special guest on my Willie Jolley Wealthy Ways SiriusXM Show is viral
internet sensation, NY Times best-selling author and internationally acclaimed
speaker and consultant, Dr. Rick Rigsby.
Dr.
Rigsby's video message, “Lessons from a Third Grade Dropout,” has over three
hundred million views worldwide. They were the lessons he learned from his
father, who had to drop out of school to work in the fields in the deep south.
His
dad went on to become a cook at a small college, yet without a formal education,
he became a wise mentor for many people. He shared powerful life lessons with
his sons, one who became a world renowned speaker and author and the other who
became a U.S. Army officer and then a federal judge.
Here
are 10 lessons from Dr. Rick Rigsby's father that shaped Rigsby’s life and led
to the massively successful work, “Lessons from a Third Grade Dropout.”
- Be
a servant. A servant’s towel should always be bigger than the towel of the
leader. Remember, ego is the anesthesia that deadens stupidity!
- Be
kind. Kind deeds are never lost. When you’re kind to others, you receive
kindness back. The analogy is, when you sprinkle perfume on others, you have to
get some on yourself.
- How
you do anything is how you do everything.
- Make
a point to let your kids catch you in the act of practicing excellence every
day.
- They
can take everything but your good name. Maintain a good reputation. It has
value.
- Love
your family more than your job.
- Determine
what you’re not willing to compromise on.
- Commit
to doing something great. Remember, a genius hits a target no one else sees.
- When
life gets hard, decide that you will do "hard better!"
- Be
the kind of entrepreneur your grandparents would hire.
