“We keep talking about saving the planet, but no matter what happens, the planet will outlive us. It’s our species that’s at risk. It’s time we reframe how we think and talk about climate cancer.”

When you compete against everyone else, no one wants to help you. But when you compete against yourself, everyone wants to help you.

You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him.

Leadership is a way of thinking, a way of acting and, most importantly, a way of communicating.

What you do is proof of what you believe.

In a society hooked on immediate gratification, it’s hard to remember that each of us is on our own timeline.

If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.

Leadership takes work. It takes time and energy. The effects are not always easily measured and they are not always immediate. Leadership is always a commitment to human beings.

Progress is more important than perfection.

We fall in love with someone when they show us, consistently, that they’re willing to put our needs ahead of their own.

If you sell what you do, you’re a vendor. If you sell why you do it, you’re a brand.

As the Zen Buddhist saying goes, how you do anything is how you do everything.

Innovation is not born from the dream, innovation is born from the struggle.

Time really does remind us the value and importance of human touch.

If you hire people just because they can do a job, they’ll work for your money. But if you hire people who believe what you believe, they’ll work for you with blood and sweat and tears.

We last longer if we compete against ourselves for the good of others instead of competing against others for the good of ourselves.

Leadership is a choice. It is not a rank.
