Lee Iacocca - Mr. Mustang

 Mr. Mustang


Lee Iacocca is a Lehigh University educated Engineer born in Allentown, Pennsylvania.  Lee was an auto executive at Ford and later leading the renewal and restoration of Chrysler Motors that was on the brink of bankruptcy in the 1970's. 
 
Lee is known for famously designing the Ford Mustang the most popular car in Ford's history.  Lee is one of those rare individuals in that he is both a leader and a doer. 

One of his quotes that I love is 

"Apply yourself. Get all the education you can, but then, by God, do something. Don't just stand there, make it happen."

Which is a more poetic way to say Take Action!  

Put your wonderful ideas into action bring them to reality that way the person, community, society, and the world can benefit.  And you know who else benefits?  You. 

Bringing your dreams to life is just another way of us participating in this beautiful dance called Creation.  Fortune favors the bold.  And if things need some adjusting that's fine, we like to fall forward when making progress to realization. 

Lee was bold, decisive and had a few setbacks along the way to his big successes.

With Love,

Coach K







it happen. ~Lee Iacocca

Which of course is another way to say Take Action!  Or let our genius out.  Share out talents with the world.  Yes, we all have something to contribute even if it's simply treating each other will a little more love and kindness.  These simple acts can have profound multiplying affects in making our world a better place.
