Let us not take yesterday or tomorrow for granted. Let us set our sights on the magnificence that has yet to be discovered and problems that have yet to be solved. Today is not just a milestone or a stopping point to reflect,but it is a dynamic launching pad to be implemented every day and in every way that would enable you to have the necessary tools to redeem a troubled world.  My charge to you, as we begin today, is to defeat mediocrity, to extinguish average, and to continue the pursuit of a yet undisclosed GREAT, a great that may be unknown or a great that could be right in front of your very own eyes.
