Lead.

“I want you, Patrol Leaders to train your members, entirely on yourselves,because it is possible for you to get hold of each & everyone in your patrol & make a good scout out of him/her. It is of no use in having only one or two brilliant scouts in the patrol leaving others to be just no good at all but you should endeavour to make them all to be fairly good. The most important step to this is yourself, because what you do, your members will follow. Show them that you can obey orders whether they are given by word of mouth, printed or written, that you can follow & carry them out whether your Scoutmaster is present or not. You should also show them that you can earn proficiency badges, this they will follow with little persuasion. But remember that you must LEAD, not PUSH”

Things to Share...

Dear all,



I was watching a video call "The Last Lecture" by Randy Pausch.I find that there are a lot we can learn from the show. There are things I like to share a few Quote and allow us to spare some time think about them.

• If no one is there to correct you when u screw up means that they have given up on you


• Experience is what u gets when u didn’t get what u wanted


• It is not how you archive things in live but is how you live your life.

Reason why I am sharing this so that we can see the up coming Performance and Race as Brick Wall - An obstacle there to see how badly we want something.

Let Do our Best in the 2 up coming event together :)

P.S. You can view the video by going to youtube and type The Last Lecture, Randy Pausch.
