A Date Which Will Live in Infamy — Lessons in Courage & Time | Day 7
Day 7 of the Give the Gift of MORE campaign, we pause to honor Pearl Harbor, reflect on courage, and talk about the human traits that help us thrive in the age of AI.
In this episode, filmed in front of the photo of my father-in-law — a Vietnam veteran, police officer, and the man who taught me what fatherhood truly looked like — I share why the message “You get one life. How you spend your time is all you have.” is at the heart of The MORE Effect.
In today’s video, I talk about:
- The significance of December 7, 1941 — and why we must still remember
- FDR’s “infamy” speech and the power of leadership presence
- The veteran community, moral injury, PTSD, and the veteran suicide crisis
- My father-in-law’s story: Vietnam, service, sacrifice, and the final years of his life
- Why presence, courage, hope & optimism (CHO) matter more now than ever
- Why veterans have so much to teach the corporate world
Pearl Harbor reminds us of two essential truths:
- There is real evil in the world, and freedom requires courage.
- Life is short, uncertain, and deeply precious — and becoming More starts now.
