'Nobody got anywhere in the world by simply being content.'"
Louis L'Amour
This quote struck me as so true in my worldview currently. I read quite a few books of his when I was younger since my grandfather had about a gillion of his paperbacks. He was always reading them when he had a spare moment.
Being exposed to others in the government and educational setting, it seems to me those type of people (settling or being content) are in the majority. Then the decision-makers / policy-makers wonder why the schools or local governments are failing. Because... people are content to show up, draw the check, do minimal work, and have no repercussions of their actions. Look around... I may be wrong, but I will need it pointed out to me. B/c in the end, I am a guy.
