Thank you. That was very inspirational. I listened to it several times and took notes. I appreciate your honesty and your call to action. We really need stand up and be active participants in the improvements of lives of our fellow men and not sit back and wait for the government or someone out there to fix everything. We are the answer we have been waiting for.

Movements build things for what WILL happen
VISION of how things can be --> MISSION --> engage EMOTIONALLY
How to make it real - express that emotion in the world - CALL to SMALL ACTION with clear RALLYING CRY
To go from supporters to tribe need TRUST
ENGAGEMENT such that every task is inspired with mission
Movement MOVES onward to next task. Movements evolve because we evolve.

You should look up the word 'literally' in a dictionary.
