You have the power to help people become winners.

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

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.

Happiness finds you when your means to control is out of the spotlight.

The concept of the black and white people boils down to: No light without darkness – You depend on each other!

Light will someday split you open.

I wish I could show you the astonishing light of your own being.

The populace is like the sea motionless in itself, but stirred by every wind, even the lightest breeze.

We have come into this exquisite world to experience ever and ever more deeply our divine courage, freedom and light!
