“It’s better to be trusted than to be liked.”

The key to success is dedication to life-long learning.

Motivation is a fire from within. If someone else tries to light that fire under you, chances are it will burn very briefly.

Most people do not listen with the intent to understand; they listen with the intent to reply.

Most leaders would agree that they’d be better off having an average strategy with superb execution than a superb strategy with poor execution. Those who execute always have the upper hand.

Trust is the highest form of human motivation. It brings out the very best in people. But it takes time and patience.

Life is not accumulation, it is about contribution.

Almost every significant breakthrough is the result of a courageous break with traditional ways of thinking.

As you care less about what people think of you, you will care more about what others think of themselves.

What you see often depends on what you are looking for.

Make small commitments and keep them. Be a light, not a judge. Be a model, not a critic. Be a part of the solution, not the problem.

People behave more on the basis of how they feel than how they think; unless there are good feelings between people, it is almost impossible to reason intelligently.

Live your life by a compass, not a clock.

Beginners are many; finishers are few.

Free your heart from hatred – forgive. Free your mind from worries – most never happen. Live simply and appreciate what you have. Give more. Expect less.

I am not a product of my circumstances. I am a product of my decisions.

The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing.

Fail, fail again, fail better.

I fall headlong into everything that lights me on fire. I know not of restraint. I was born to burn.

How many things have been denied one day, only to become realities the next!

The difference between something good and something great is attention to detail.

There’s a difference between quittin and knowin when you’re beat.

One has to remember that every failure can be a stepping stone to something better.

We as a species have unlimited power of our mind. We can make anything happen.

Life is the question and life is the answer, and God is the reason and love is the way.
