When you finish reading the book [Today Matters], take the daily dozen and list them in order of how well you do them. For example, the one that I would put at the highest for me is attitude or relationships because I'm really strong at both of those. At the bottom would be health. What I tell people is, "Take one month and work on one of the daily dozen for a whole year." And so it's really a one-year personal growth plan.

You add value to people when you value them.

Time management is an oxymoron. Time is beyond our control, and the clock keeps ticking regardless of how we lead our lives. Priority management is the answer to maximizing the time we have.

Leadership is not about titles, positions or flowcharts. It is about one life influencing another.

Everything begins with a decision. Then, we have to manage that decision for the rest of your life.

If we treat people as who they can become, they will be inspired to rise to the level of our expectations.

Good thinkers are always in demand. A person who knows how may always have a job, but the person who knows why will always be his boss.
