JAMES R. WEBB AMERICAN REAL ESTATE SOCIETY FOUNDATION 'ACTIONS ARE BETTER THAN MOTTOS'

摘要

In the movie the Lion King, Timon, a cute meerkat, asks a simple question - "What's a motto?" Timon's adorable warthog companion Pumbaa responds, "Nothing. What's a motto with you?" Over the last several years, I have floated several mottos in an effort to raise financial support for the James R. Webb American Real Estate Society Foundation ("Foundation"). Just like Pumbaa's misplaced understanding of what is a motto, I've learned that mottos don't work if my goal is to increase the number of Fellows and, ultimately, contributions to the Foundation.
