Photo of Earhart in 1928 (public domain)
Amelia Earhart, pioneer aviator, had this to say: “Never interrupt someone doing what you said couldn’t be done.” I just love that! How many times have I had some whiner standing nearby giving me all the reasons I couldn’t do something! And if anyone should know what it takes to do something people said couldn’t be done, it was Earhart. She was the first woman to be honored with the Distinguished Flying Cross for her solo trip across the Atlantic Ocean in 1928, a year after Charles Lindbergh’s flight. Earhart disappeared while flying over the Pacific Ocean near Howland Island in 1937.
