The person with a plan, a picture, will go after thoughts that add value to their thinking.

Fail early, fail often, but always fail forward.

To achieve all that is possible, we must attempt the impossible. To be all we can be, we must dream of being more.

The secret of your success is determined by your daily agenda.

COMMUNICATION: If I had to pick a first rule of communication-the one practice above all others that opens the door to connecting with others-it would be to look for common ground. Too often people see communication as the process of transmitting massive amounts of information to other people. But that's the wrong picture. Communication is a journey. The more that people have in common, the better the chance that they can take that journey together.

Confidence equals contentment with self; contentment is knowing you have all you need for the present circumstances.

Great leaders always have self-discipline -without exception.
