Tributes from around the world called him an icon of exploration and a true American hero. Unlike most of the leaders we feature in this space, Armstrong didn\u2019t start or run a business (though he did serve on several corporate boards). However, he was an entrepreneur in the truest sense of the word: willing to take huge risks to do something no one else had ever done.<\/p>\n<p>Armstrong is most famous for what he said after taking the first step on the moon: \u201cThat\u2019s one small step for [a] man, one giant leap for mankind.\u201d But he said a few other things that we think are pretty inspirational for others who are trying to take steps in new and exciting places. Take a look:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cPilots take no special joy in walking. Pilots like flying.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere can be no great accomplishment without risk.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI believe that every human has a finite number of heart beats. I don\u2019t intend to waste any of mine.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201c&#8230;humanity is not forever chained to this planet, our visions go rather further than that and our opportunities are unlimited.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think we tried very hard not to be overconfident, because when you get overconfident, that\u2019s when something snaps up and bites you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI guess we all like to be recognized not for one piece of fireworks, but for the ledger of our daily work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201c&#8230;it\u2019s in the nature of the human being to face challenges. It\u2019s by the nature of his deep inner soul&#8230; we\u2019re required to do these things just as salmon swim upstream.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u2014Neil Armstrong, Astronaut and First Man on the Moon<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This past Saturday, Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the moon (and America\u2019s most famous astronaut) passed away.
