Your success stops where your character stops. You can never rise above the limitations of your character.

Acquiring and keeping good people is a leader's most important task.

We have many years to eat and sleep, but how many years do we have to make a difference in the lives of others? That's the highest calling any of us can have: Living our life so as to intentionally add value to others. But to do this, we have to make ourselves more valuable. We have to keep learning, growing, developing as leaders and taking responsibility for being the change we want to see in the world.

I think passion and discipline are wonderful, complementary things.

Any leader who asks the right questions of the right people has the potential to discover and develop great ideas.

No one achieves greatness by becoming a generalist. You don't hone a skill by diluting your attention to its development. The only way to get to the next level is focus.

If you are a leader, the true measure of your success is not getting people to work. It's not getting people to work hard. It is getting people to work hard together. That takes commitment.
