To become a courageous leader, you must realize that accepting responsibility is not optional - it's mandatory.

Never lower your standards just to fill a position. You will pay for it later.

If you want to be around people who are positive and enthusiastic and eager to live life, your attitude has to be the same.

To become a courageous leader, you must realize that accepting responsibility is not optional - it's mandatory.

Leadership can't be claimed like luggage at the airport. Leadership can't be inherited, even though you may inherit a leadership position. And leadership can't be given as a gift - even if you've been blessed with an abundance of leadership skills to share with someone else. Leadership must be earned by mastering a defined set of skills and by working with others to achieve common goals.

The most important thing you do as a leader is to hire the right people.

One of the major sources of stress, anxiety, and unhappiness comes from feeling as if your life is out of control.
