The challenge of leadership is to be strong, but not rude; be kind, but not weak; be bold, but not bully; be thoughtful, but not lazy; be humble, but not timid; be proud, but not arrogant; have humor, but without folly.

It only takes one lie to taint your entire testimony.

Goals are like a magnet - they pull. And the stronger they are, the more purposeful they are, the bigger they are, the more unique they are, the stronger they pull.

Emotions are the fuel and the mind is the pilot which together propel the ship of civilized progress.

Keep the weeds of negative influence from your life. 'Farm' the seeds of constructive influence.

If we are not happy with where our past decisions have led us, then the place to start is with our current thinking process.

Our philosophy about activity and our attitude about hard work will affect the quality of our lives. What we decide about the rightful ratio of labor to rest will establish a certain work ethic. That work ethic - our attitude about the amount of labor we are willing to commit to future fortune - will determine how substantial or how meager that fortune turns out to be.
