We all stand on the shoulders of the past generation.

Self-centered leaders manipulate when they move people for personal benefit. Mature leaders motivate by moving people for mutual benefit.

Changing your attitude from self-centerdness to understanding requires desire and commitment to always try to see things from the other persons point of view.

As you interact with others, remember this: anytime a person's response is larger than the issue at hand, the response is almost always about something else.

Each person we meet has the potential to teach us something.

When you finish reading the book [Today Matters], take the daily dozen and list them in order of how well you do them. For example, the one that I would put at the highest for me is attitude or relationships because I'm really strong at both of those. At the bottom would be health. What I tell people is, "Take one month and work on one of the daily dozen for a whole year." And so it's really a one-year personal growth plan.

The smartest person in the room is never as smart as all the people in the room.
