Lesson #4: Think Big, Act Small
When Hughes said as a child that he wanted to be the richest man in the world, he had a clear vision about where he wanted to go, but he did not yet know how he was going to get there.

Luck is what happens when preparedness meets opportunity
Being an avid aviation fan since childhood, planes (especially general aviation) have always had a special place in my heart. And I remember very clearly the time when I had an opportunity to work for Boeing. I was invited for the interview and result was that they liked me but they did not like my skill level for the particular role I was supposed to execute. So what happened? The opportunity passed by. But did I give up then? No. I kept learning and training myself more and more. I didn’t give up on the dream of working for a dream-company like Boeing. And it paid off, but almost a year from the initial interview. I was finally given the opportunity to work for one of my dream-companies. Now, what do you think happened there?

Leaders Control Their Own Destiny
Carl Hiebert tells uplifting stories with his lips (as a professional speaker), but the story he tells with his life is even more inspiring. Carl first made a name for himself (and aviation history) in Canada when he overcame huge odds to organize (that took years) and fly a successful 58-day flight from the Atlantic Ocean in Halifax to the Pacific Ocean in Vancouver - in an open cockpit ultralight. Everyone in our family have since been up with Carl in his two-seater ("flying lawn chairs") aircraft powered by a small 47-horsepower engine.
