To grow yourself, you must know yourself.

I have found progress, personal growth, and new and exciting opportunities in my failure. I've grown more comfortable with the fact that in certain circumstances, I'm the person in the room who knows the least about what's going on.

Any leader who asks the right questions of the right people has the potential to discover and develop great ideas.

Failure is not a one-time event; it's how you deal with life along the way. Until you breathe your last breath, you're still in the process, and there is still time to turn things around for the better.

The Wrong Person in the Wrong Place = Regression. The Wrong Person in the Right Place = Frustration. The Right Person in the Wrong Place = Confusion. The Right Person in the Right Place = Progression. The Right People in the Right Places = Multiplication.

Don't buy into the notion that mistakes can somehow be avoided. They can't be.

All good leaders are connectors. They relate well and make people feel confident about themselves and their leader.
