You have no control over how much talent you possess. You control only what you do with it.

When your great players are team players, everybody else follows their lead. The best team doesn't always win - it's usually the team that gets along best.

You will become on the outside, what you believe on the inside.

Inexperienced leaders are quick to lead before knowing anything about the people they intend to lead. But mature leaders listen, learn and then lead.

If you want to lead people, you have to let them come up close.

I say, make the decision, and as soon as you make the decision, the rest of your life you just manage that decision on a daily basis.

Of all the things a leader should fear, complacency heads the list.
