Dr. Frank W. Hale Jr. passed away recently and I attended his funeral on this past Sunday. The ceremony was amazing and I got the chance to learn so much more about him that I did not know. I am so blessed to have had the chance to have him as a mentor. Here are a few lessons I learned from "Doc" that I will take with me forever.
- If you walk with God, he will walk with you EVERYWHERE.
- Don't just dream. Start doing so that you can live the dream.
- Always write down your thoughts. Eventually you can compile them to share with others.
- Dream Big. Why not be a college president?
- You are unique and you have things that others don't have. So, never count yourself out.
- It is not okay to except unfair or discriminatory treatment.
- Stand up for those who may not have a voice.
- Focus on service and all the things that are important will come just in time.
- God loves you. Spread that love.
These are just a few things that I learned from Dr. Hale. I hope to pass these lessons on as he did. To read more about my experience with Dr. Hale, click here.
