“Many leadership problems are driven by low self-awareness.”

The real deal is always going to win in the end.

Visionary people face the same problems everyone else faces; but rather than get paralyzed by their problems, visionaries immediately commit themselves to finding a solution.

You cannot do leadership without a source of regenerative strength. What is your source?

You are the most difficult person you will ever lead.

If you’re a serious minded leader, you will read. You will read all you can.

The tithe is a wonderful goal but a terrible place to stop.

You don’t have to be any more talented, any richer, any slimmer, any smarter, any more or less of anything to partner with God. All you have to be is willing to be used by him in everyday way

If there is ever a time crying out for courageous leadership, its now.

I’m praying to a God who wants to bear fruit through me, and I am going to trust that he is going to use me tonight. Not because of who I am, but because of who he is. He is faithful.

Every single decision you make as a leader has an effect on the spirit of those you lead.

The leader is the organization’s top strategist… systematically envisioning the future and specifically mapping out how to get there.

The grander the vision the greater the price tag.

Our conduct will never change God’s character.

You can never underestimate the amount of energy and frequency you must give to vision casting. You can never underestimate it.

I’m praying to the God who has always been faithful to me, who has never let me down no matter how frightened I was or how difficult the situation looked.

He [God] wants us to talk to him as to a friend or father – authentically, reverently, personally, earnestly.

It is simple awareness devoid of movement to and fro, of past and future, within and without, merit and harm.

You will have a steady awareness within yourself.

The first step towards healing is reflection. From reflection comes awareness, and from awareness we must move towards acceptance. From acceptance, we can take action. And in action comes healing.

It really moved the dial politically. That’s what is needed in the women’s movement – a strategy that can drive awareness and culture change.

Awareness isn’t something we own; awareness isn’t something we possess. Awareness is actually what we are.

Only when the pursuit ceases, is it possible to recognize what comprises you: pure being.

As you gently relax into awareness, into listening, the mind’s compulsive contraction around objects will fade. Awareness naturally returns to its non-state of absolute unmanifest potential, the silent abyss beyond all knowing.

In true meditation the emphasis is on being awareness; not on being aware of objects, but on resting as primordial awareness itself. Primordial awareness is the source in which all objects arise and subside.
