President Bush and the Code

President Bush was remembered for many great reasons this week.  We heard an interview in which  he was asked what his “legacy” would be.  His answer was that this was a question for others to decide, but then he went on to say, “I made some mistakes and we did some good things.”  Notice how he said “I” made some mistakes but “we” did some good things.  That is a reflection of true leadership, of a person who takes responsibility for his or her mistakes, but always gives credit to the team for success.  Coach Wooden said, “It’s amazing how much you can get done when no one cares who gets the credit.” Take a few minutes to reflect on the qualities of President Bush you most admired.  How did his life reflect the Code?
