Leaders don't rise to the pinnacle of success without developing the right set of attitudes and habits; they make every day a masterpiece.

I started out in the ministry, went to college, started as a pastor, pastored for basically 25 years. That was a good time, I really enjoyed it.

Successful and unsuccessful people do not vary greatly in their abilities. They vary in their desires to reach their potential.

No great leader in history fought to prevent change.

Every person has a longing to be significant; to make a contribution; to be a part of something noble and purposeful.

The whole idea of motivation is a trap. Forget motivation. Just do it. Exercise, lose weight, test your blood sugar, or whatever. Do it without motivation. And then, guess what? After you start doing the thing, that's when the motivation comes and makes it easy for you to keep on doing it.

A nightmare is a big dream....with a bad team.
