You realize that we over-exaggerate yesterday, we over-estimate tomorrow and we underestimate today. We think, "Well, I'm going to kill time," "I'll get back to this tomorrow."

Encourage the many; mentor the few.

We tend to get in life what we are willing to tolerate.

People who use time wisely spend it on activities that advance their overall purpose in life.

Your attitude is a choice.

Reflective thinking is like the crock pot of the mind. It encourages your thoughts to simmer until they're done.

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.
