If you don't have the ability to see when to stand up and the conviction to do it, you'll never be an effective leader.

Leaders attract potential leaders.

Plan and execute your first failure so that you no longer have to fear it.

Deciding what to be is more important than deciding what to do.

The measure of a leader is not the number of people who serve him, but the number of people he serves.

I am the recipient of many benefits that I do not deserve and did not earn. Someone else paid for them. I am grateful! How do I show my gratitude? By daily pouring into others and passing on to them the things that will allow them to run far and achieve beyond what I have done.

In my leadership conferences, pastors ask, "Do you have a vision for my church?" Many times they want me to give them a picture of where they should go and what their church should look like. When these pastors do this, I always feel bad.
