“If you want to know why your people are not performing well, step up to the mirror and take a peek.”

People who feel good about themselves produce good results.

Take a minute: look at your goals, look at your performance, see if your behavior matches your goals.

As a manager the important thing is not what happens when you are there, but what happens when you are not there.

Business is like tennis. Those who serve well win.

You have the power to help people become winners.

Take what you do seriously, but yourself lightly.

Knowing where you are going is the first step to getting there.

Learning is defined as a change in behavior. You haven’t learned a thing until you take action and use it.

Everyday do something in relation to everything that’s important to you.

We are not just our behavior. We are the person managing our behavior.

Connect the dots between individual roles and the goals of the organization. When people see that connection, they get a lot of energy out of work. They feel the importance, dignity, and meaning in their job.

Feedback is the breakfast of champions.

People don’t mind being challenged to do better if they know the request is coming from a caring heart.

Effective team leaders adjust their style to provide what the group can’t provide for itself.

Real communication happens when people feel safe.

Purpose can never be about achievement; it is much bigger.

People tried to talk me out of running for president. Never let weak controlling people kill your spirit.

We live in what virtually amounts to a museum – which does not happen to a lot of people.

You greet people and are fooled by their smiles. I greet people and I’m haunted by the pain in their eyes.

We as a people will heal. We will insure the well-being of each other.

I heard many tongues in many languages saying that people cannot be Gods, and that’s a given. But what if people don’t know what was given to them?

I’ve got a wandering heart that yearns for the people and places I haven’t met yet.

It took me a long time but I finally met people who made me stop craving you.

Do not let the behavior of others destroy your inner peace.
