Did You Know:
 From: Lee Schearer,
To: My Fellow Chapel Hill Leads Group Members
"Principles To Live By"
As most of you who have come to know me over the years, you know that I am very passionate about the military, especially about those men and women who were of age during World War II. Those of The Greatest Generation. I have a booklet titled" Lessons Learned From The Legendary Tuskegee Airmen". The lessons are not about how to fly an aircraft, they are about life lessons and the basic principles to live by. They include six :
- Aim High
- Believe in Yourself
- Use Your Brain
- Be Ready To Go
- Never Quit
- Expect To Win
These six basic principles are those that apply to each of us in our respective business endeavors and in our own lives. They are reminders to help us achieve our goals and to live a life that will be an example for others to learn from. I see these principles in action every week at the Chapel Hill Leads Group. That is why our group has endured over the past 18 years and going stronger than ever.
I invite you to join me this Wednesday morning and to experience for yourself why we are the largest and most successful business referral organization in the region. Remember, each day to put a smile on your face, have a joyful song on your mind and challenge yourself to live a life of example for good.
Respectfully,
Lee Schearer

Attention CHLG Members - The Chapel Hill Leads Group's goal is to raise 100+ boxes of cereal a month. If everyone brought one box of cereal to two meetings this month, the Chapel Hill Leads Group would easily exceed the 100 boxes of cereal goal.
