Most of us want to leave this
earth a better place than it was
when we were born into it. What
will people remember about you
when you leave this life?
The most influential people are the ones who leave behind
legacies so profound that they live on in the hearts of the
people whose lives they touched and they’ll be remem-
bered by people they never met, people born long after
they left this life.
Their principles, philosophies and achievements will be
passed down from generation to generation.
The families PCT profiled in this article are busy making
their mark on the world today by driving themselves and
their families to greatness.
They have all have taken control of their destiny, and will
leave behind an inspiring legacy for generations to come.
In the words of Benjamin Franklin, “If you would not be
forgotten as soon as you are dead, either write something
worth reading or do something worth writing.”
These families are busy following the later part of Frank-
lin’s advice, while we at PCT are diligently working to
follow the first part.
