All of the animals except man know that the
principal business of life is to enjoy it.

When love and skill work together, expect a masterpiece.

Leadership is often easy during the good times. It's when everything seems to be against you - when you're out of energy, and you don't want to lead - that you earn your place as a leader. During every season of life, leaders face crucial moments when they must choose between gearing up or giving up. To make it through those times, rely on the rock of discipline, not the shifting sand of emotion.

Leadership is influence, nothing more, nothing less. That means it is by nature relational. Today's generation of leaders seem particularly aware of this because title and position mean so little to them. They know intuitively that people go along with people they get along with.

The most elusive and desired quality of leadership is vision.
Vision is the perfume of the mind.

The great use of life is to spend it
for something that will outlast it.

Silence is often misinterpreted, but never misquoted.

Tomorrow is now.

Whatever your mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve.

Whatever your mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve.

You cannot plan the future by the past.

Choosing a goal and sticking to it changes everything.

Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by
the things you did NOT do than by the things you did.

The invariable mark of wisdom is to see
the miraculous in the common.

Synergy is the highest activity of life; it creates new untapped alternatives;
it values and exploits the mental, emotional, and psychological differences
between people.

Expect trouble as an inevitable part of life and repeat to yourself the most comforting words of all: "This, too, shall pass."

LEADERSHIP & SUCCESS

If you command wisely, you'll be obeyed cheerfully.
