One way to overcome our natural self-centeredness is to try to see things from other people's perspectives.

When values, thoughts, feelings, and actions are in alignment, a person becomes focused and character is strengthened.

The key to encouragement is in knowing what gives people courage; what spurs them on to action.

Others are Ahead of me. I am continually Challenged. My focus is Forward. The atmosphere is Affirming. I am often out of my Comfort Zone. I wake up Excited. Failure is not my Enemy. Others are Growing. People desire Change. Growth is Modeled and Expected.

When a leader is upbeat in the face of discouraging circumstances, others admire that quality and want to be like her.

Without leadership ability,a person's impact is only a fraction of what it could be with good leadership.

Nothing separates successful people from unsuccessful people more than how they use their time!
