Dr. Jim Yong Kim's wisdom

Just watched a Washinton Post video of Dr. Jim Yong Kim on Leadership, and 2 things he said stood out:

1. "If you think this country owes you anything, you are crazy.  You have to get a skill." 

This was great advice from Dr. Kim's father, i wish I learnt this when I was much younger.

2. "Not just charisma, not just people who can produce interesting banter.  It is the person who will take responsibility for a situation and move it to a place that was better than what it was before."
