Quote of the day:

"You get in life what you have the courage to ask for." — Oprah Winfrey

In a meeting one day I asked him to pitch the latest idea for a new marketing plan he had worked on to senior management. The day came and he got up in front of the room with his impressive slides and his talking points and ... he froze—his voice quivered, he lost his place in the presentation and he simply wasn't able to convince the team gathered that his brilliant idea was worth taking forward. I felt terrible, having experienced similar moments of self-doubt and nervousness in my past.

When I first came to Washington DC, I had what I thought was my dream job. I was a political appointee in President Reagan's Administration and it was everything I had hoped for. But as the term of my appointment came close to expiration and management tried to get it extended, a bureaucratic snafu happened and it meant that I would be out of a job until things could be worked out and the situation was resolved.
