A country like the USA needs a North Star everyone agrees upon and continues to head toward that North Star as a connected as possible making strides and improvements to get there. The states should be aligned and become a piece of that puzzle offering their particular strengths and resources as part of the action plan to reach that North Star. The North Star is the fulfillment of our Constitution and Bill of Rights. USA citizens are afforded choices and resources to reach their personal potential with purpose. Each contributing citizen has an equal chance, requiring drive, passion, self investment to get there. Confidence, respect, self authored responsibility, accountability and resilience to find resources and support must be found in one’s own values, strengths, mission, vision and role of leadership. This is not where federal government should be involved. With all the technology we have at our fingertips, we are well armed with all we need to realize our dreams. Don’t reach for a crutch when you have two working legs! (Metaphorically only). We are all created for a purpose to the whole…very strong. You must author the vision, your mission and the action plan. Only you are in charge of your role in life. Faith will get you there because it is not a coincidence, it is by design YOU were created to be here, in the now, with your strengths and passion, dreams and aspirations to make us whole. We are all connected by the same Creator with His vision of who He created us to be. The gift of freedom, free will is within each of us. The rest of us need you to be part of the whole. Realize your blessings, the very best of who your are to create the very best of who you were born to be! Start with you, your family, your neighborhood, your community.

William Phelps Eno, often referred to as the "Father of Traffic Safety," was an American businessman and innovator who played a pivotal role in the development of early road safety and traffic control measures. Despite never learning to drive a car himself, Eno's contributions have had a lasting impact on the way we navigate our streets and cities. Here are some highlights of his life and work: - Born: June 3, 1858, in New York City. - Education: Attended Hopkins Grammar School, Williston Academy, and graduated from Yale University in 1882. - Innovations: Credited with creating the stop sign, pedestrian crosswalk, traffic circle, one-way street, taxi stand, and pedestrian safety islands. - Traffic Plans: Developed the first traffic plans for major cities like New York, London, and Paris. His rotary traffic plan was implemented at Columbus Circle in New York City in 1905, at the Arc de Triomphe in Paris in 1907, and at Piccadilly Circus in London in 1926. - Publications: Wrote the first-ever manual of police traffic regulations and authored "Rules of the Road" in 1903. - Legacy: Founded the Eno Transportation Foundation in 1921 to promote improvements in transportation and traffic management. Eno passed away on December 3, 1945, in Norwalk, Connecticut, but his legacy continues to influence modern transportation and traffic systems around the world. #inspirationalquote #motivationalquote #wisdomquotes #lifelesson

Toronto City Council's recent decision to withhold new ride-share licenses until 2024's end will likely restrict supply, causing prices to surge for rideshare users in the city. However, beyond the inconvenience for consumers, this license cap poses a severe public safety concern. For instance, research from the University of Texas demonstrated a significant negative correlation between ride-share volume and motor vehicle-associated trauma. This impact was most pronounced among individuals younger than 30 years old. Further studies highlight that ride-hailing services contribute to a marked reduction in both physical and sexual assault arrests. This statistic aligns with the fact that 81% of female riders prioritize safety when choosing ride-hailing over other transportation alternatives.
