#Repost @robinsharma ・・・ I get that it’s easy to worry and fret about the future. Yet I must enthusiastically share that what makes us human is our ability to invent. And to endure. And to overcome. I pray you will leverage this season to reaccess the bigness, honour, kindness and strength that I know is you at your best. It’s the best time I’ve ever known to build your most exceptional you. And to upgrade your skills. And to lead your field. This is a fine stage to x10 your dedication to personal mastery. And to lean out expenses. And to reorder your priorities. And to build an even better business. That moves quicker and serves more people. I am bullish on the future. I am on fire to help you make this surprising time the greatest time of your life (yet). And I am here to encourage your ideals. Leave a 🙏🏼 if you needed to see this today — and TAG a friend so we spread the positive message. Hope this helps. I’ve got your back. And together we’re making our world a brighter place. Love, Robin https://www.instagram.com/p/CC_jphdAXfnq6ixwqlWgff3q_OaMWVPUCBk_ns0/?igshid=avtteaqyl1t4

This is Toussaint L’Ouverture.
1. The Louisiana Purchase may not have been made had it not been for Toussaint L’Ouverture.
2. L’Ouverture freed the slaves of Haiti in the only permanently successful slave revolt in history.
3. He developed the idea of dominion status for Haiti as part of France. Rejected by Napoleon, the idea subsequently was used by Great Britain 66 years later on July 1, 1862, when Canada became the first dominion.
4. He wrote the first constitution for Haiti. It was the second constitution for a republic in the Western Hemisphere.
5. He was the greatest Black general in history, except for Hannibal 2000 years earlier.
6. He was the most outstanding Black statesman in history.
7. He possessed outstanding ability as a civil administrator.
8. He set up the first legal code for Haiti.
9. He devised the first universal school system for Black people.
10. He dealt with the first five presidents of the United States or their representatives, either when they were in that office or when they were Secretary of State.
11. He was the first Black man to be the subject of poems by two of America’s leading poets.
12. He was the only Black general to defeat three of the world’s biggest armies: French, British and Spanish.
13. He declared emancipation for slaves 61 years before U.S. president Abraham Lincoln did so.
14. He devised a plan for how slaves could gain economic freedom, before those rights were granted in any other country.
15. By bringing the freedom of slaves to the world’s attention, L’Ouverture’ example helped other worldwide liberation movements develop (women’s right to vote and other women’s issues, child labor laws, environmental movements and others).
16. He caused European governments for the first time to deal with the aspirations of Black colonial people. His example was followed by Simon Bolivar in South America, Russians with serfs, British in India, and Boers in South Africa (due to Gandhi’s leadership).
17. Set up the first new and simplified tax code.
18. He got rid of corrupt French tax collectors in Haiti. Substituted clear-cut tax rules.
19. He promulgated and administered new laws with justice (unique for colonials).
20. He improved the quality of slaves’ lives measurably. Gave them pride as members of society.
21. He was the “First one who brought guerrilla warfare to the notice of military historians. He used strict discipline and precision with athletic prowess.”
