Speak the truth. Transparency breeds legitimacy.

Never allow others to put obstacles in the pathway of your dreams

Everyone gets discourages...The question is: Are you going to give up or get up? It's a choice.

When I was 17, I made the decision to have a good attitude. I was a junior in high school; the coach said I was going to be the captain of my basketball team. I thought – that surprised me because I wasn’t the best player. John Thomas was better than me, and I was probably second or third best player. And I kept thinking, “Why am I going to be the captain?” I think everybody else was thinking that too. And the coach then answered, “The reason John is going to be the captain is he has the best attitude on the team. He encourages others, he believes we can win, he never gives up.”

If your habits don't line up with your dream, then you need to either change your habits or change your dream

Our destiny is determined, not by what we possess, but by what possess us.

The first step to leadership is servanthood.
