LEADERSHIP - This is the 7th Home Chat provided by Growing Leaders, Opportunity Statue (Time Management). In ancient Greece, there was a statue called “Opportunity.” The statue had long flowing hair in the front and a bald head in back. Although it was a little strange, it was meant to teach a lesson: opportunity is something you can grab while it’s coming at you, but you can’t catch hold of it after it’s passed. This is why leaders manage opportunities. Everyone has 86,400 seconds each day to use or abuse. If you don’t use your time wisely you can’t get it back once it’s gone.

LEMONADE DAY GOES ONLINE!
COVID-19 has required a shift in the planning of this year’s Lemonade Day, including postponing the kick-off event and all mentoring sessions leading up to Lemonade Day. Event organizers are planning to reschedule for a Saturday in late summer. But we do have some GREAT NEWS! The National Lemonade Day organization has made available Lemonopolis, a free online version of workbooks and materials for all kids, not just those who are registered for Lemonade Day. This means that kids will be able to set a goal, make a plan and work the plan from the comfort of their own home!
To access Lemonopolis: Click here to register
