“How wonderful is it that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world” - Anne Frank
Anne Frank got it right. The only we have to do is choose to begin. For me the best way is to choose and…… leap! I’ve never been one to take the small, get your feet wet steps. To be honest there have been a few times when I wish I had – but all in all the Choose/Leap technique works for me.
It fills me with an immediate feeling of commitment and images of what could be! I always find like minded people once I leap and there is a fast sense of purpose and belonging. In fact some of the most cherished people in my life (other than my amazing family of course) are those whose paths I’ve crossed and been honored to work with when on a mission to make a difference and improve the world. My mission at this point is to help youth develop into strong, dynamic leaders through the Cyclebetes Spin-a-Thon Student Leadership Program and to support a promise a friend made to his daughter to help find a cure for her type one diabetes.
The bonus is – I am surrounded by outstanding young people and teachers who want to improve the world. They know how to leap!!
Know any schools, students and teachers who would benefit by knowing more about the Cyclebetes Spin-a-Thon Student Leadership Program? Leap! Email me Cheryl@cyclebetes.com.
I’ll send you lots of great info!

It is through one person having the courage to lead that extraordinary things are accomplished. It always begins the same way, one brave soul steps forward and says. “I’m in!”
