“It’s good to be out of your comfort zone. Just don’t step out of your gift zone.”

The only one you should compare yourself to is you. Your mission is to become better today than you were yesterday.

Where there is no hope in the future, there is no power in the present.

Leadership is not about titles, positions or flowcharts. It is about one life influencing another.

When you are bigger than your purpose you have a career. When your purpose is bigger than you, you have a calling.

You have to live with the people to know their needs, and you have to live with God to know how to solve them.

God chooses what we go through; we choose how we go through it.

Commitment comes as a result of choice, not conditions.

Successful people don’t have any fewer problems than unsuccessful people; they just have a different mindset in dealing with them.

Leadership is not about titles, positions or flowcharts. It is about one life influencing another.

God chooses what we go through; we choose how we go through it.

Your life today is a result of your thinking yesterday. Your life tomorrow will be determined by what you think today.

Where there is no hope in the future, there is no power in the present.

It’s said that a wise person learns from his mistakes. A wiser one learns from others’ mistakes. But the wisest person of all learns from others’s successes.

Failed plans should not be interpreted as a failed vision. Visions don’t change, they are only refined. Plans rarely stay the same, and are scrapped or adjusted as needed. Be stubborn about the vision, but flexible with your plan.

The greatest day in your life and mine is when we take total responsibility for our attitudes. That’s the day we truly grow up.

Negative thinking limits God and our potential.

Vulnerability sounds like truth and feels like courage. Truth and courage aren’t always comfortable, but they’re never weakness.

Hurt me with the truth. Don’t comfort me with a lie.

I’ve pretty much done all I can here and, you know, God will carry me the rest of the way, so I’m pretty comfortable with that.

I hope you become comfortable with the use of logic without being deceived into concluding that logic will inevitably lead you to the correct conclusion.

Normality is a paved road: It’s comfortable to walk, but no flowers grow on it.

When you have that respect from your teammates, it makes it a lot more comfortable.

I think some aspects of writing can be taught. Obviously, you can’t teach vision or talent. But you can help with comfort.

The greatest fine art of the future will be the making of a comfortable living from a small piece of land.
