if you don't have peace, it isn't because someone took it from you; you gave it away. You cannot always control what happens to you, but you can control what happens in you.

All visions begin with relationships. My relationship with God is where I receive the vision; my relationship with my people is where I give the vision. If those relationships aren't what they could be or should be, on either side, the receiving or the giving out, the vision is going to be aborted.

The leader finds the dream and then the people. The people find the leader and then the dream.

Leadership involves the heavy burden of responsibility, and the fear of getting it wrong can paralyze a leader.

When you believe in people, you motivate them and release their potential.

Strong leaders equal strong organizations.

If you want leaders, you must become a leader yourself!
