After being nominated and elected Commander-in-Chief for the War of Independence, George Washington made quite a speech. And it sure doesn’t sound like something influencers would say these days. Read what he said…
“I beg they will accept my cordial thanks for this distinguished testimony of their approbation. But lest some unlucky event should happen, unfavorable to my reputation, I beg it may be remembered by every gentleman in the room that I this day declare with the utmost sincerity I do not think myself equal to the command I am honored with. As to pay, Sir, I beg leave to assure the Congress that as no pecuniary consideration could have tempted me to accept this arduous employment at the expense of my domestic ease and happiness, I do not wish to make any profit from it. I will keep an exact account of my expenses. Those I doubt not they will discharge, and that is all I desire.”
So, Mr. Washington didn’t “wish to make any profit” from his new position. But he still promised to “keep an exact account of my expenses.”
I hope he kept his business receipts.
Because, apparently, those expenses included a lot of duties and details. General Washington had to select and supervise other generals, command an army, and coordinate with the new Congress. And he had to oversee the training of a unified militia and keep a check on supplies. And there are lots of logistics connected to all that.
I’m sure you can relate to having lots of business responsibilities. Right? And I know it can feel like you’re up against overwhelming odds a lot of the time.
But you’ve got it a lot better than George Washington had it. Because you can (virtually) be in more places at the same time. Poor George could only be in one place at a time. And you can practically run all your operations from your phone. “Your PHONE,” I said. And almost instantly.
Poor George often had to wait weeks just to get a reply to a tactical letter.
