“The first principle of ethical power is Purpose… It is the picture you have of yourself – the kind of person you want to be or the kind of life you want to lead.”

Don’t quack like a duck, soar like an eagle.

As a leader, the most important earthly relationship you can cultivate is your relationship with yourself.

Most companies spend all their time looking for another management concept and very little time following up the one they have just taught their managers.

Leadership is about going somewhere. If you and your people don’t know where you are going, your leadership doesn’t matter.

Don’t wait until people do things exactly right before you praise them.

Humility does not mean you think less of yourself. It means you think of yourself less.

One of the deepest principles of life and leadership: it’s not about you.

In fact, Jesus is mentioned 75 times in the Koran.

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

Catch people in the act of doing something right.

The key to successful leadership today is influence, not authority.

None of us is as smart as all of us.

What we give our attention to, grows.

It never hurts to toot your own horn once in a while.

Perpetual prosperity comes to those who help others.
