Domino's Pizza is one of my favorite pizza chains! Recently Domino's decided to adopt a new slogan for the company, "Failure is An Option!" I was shocked to see this quote because I'm accustomed to seeing "Failure IS NOT an Option." After reading several business journals about Domino's new venture of embracing failures, I realize failure shouldn't be frown upon. Experiencing failure can directly correct our areas of improvements and help troubleshoot more efficiently!

In your 9.3-9.4 EP and Discussion Forum assignment, we will discuss "Rags to Riches" stories. Throughout history, Americans are known to cherish these types of stories because people can easily identify with not having the main essential of life. "Rags to Riches" stories tend to inspire us to strive for greatness and give a glimpse of hope of pursuing our dreams. One of my favorite "Rags to Riches" stories is world renowned author J.K. Rowling of the Harry Potter series, she was barely making ends meet to support herself and family, currently she is a growing empire from her mysterious and whimsical imagination!

"Millions saw the apple fall, but Newton was the one who asked why" (R. Nixon).

What is inspiration? What inspires you? How can you inspire others? Why is this quality important for effective leadership?
8.6 Journal allows you to reflect on the above quote. For this assignment, you will use the quote to discuss the meaning of your personal inspiration. Personally, I feel we need to be reflective leaders and encourage questioning. Life is as simple as discovering the "why's" in life! Remember to discuss this assignment in 150 or more words, be mindful to use examples and personal experiences.
