People have a seed to success within them. Most never find it and therefore fail to reach their potential. Occasionally, a leader discovers it and helps that individual develop it. For both, they now can fulfill the purpose for which they are born.

The bottomline in leadership isn't how far we advance ourselves but how far we advance others.

Many pastors fail to see God's vision fulfilled because they never have a strategy for fulfilling that vision.

While everyone exercises influence, the size and strength of our influence depends upon our effort. No one leads well without paying the price of discipline. As we push ourselves to grow and to learn, we enlarge our sphere of influence.

If you want to help others and become a person of influence, keep smiling, sharing, giving, and turning the other cheek.

Trust must be built day by day. It calls for consistency.

Successful people make right decisions early and manage those decisions daily.
