There are no half-hearted champions.

What I had been taught all my life was not true: experience is not the best teacher! Some people learn and grow as a result of their experience; some people don't. Everybody has some kind of experience. It's what you do with that experience that matters.

You have no control over how much talent you possess. You control only what you do with it.

Become a coach, not a king. A coach brings out the best in others, helping them to reach deep down inside and discover their potential. A king only gives commands.

Earn the right to be heard by listening to others. Seek to understand a situation before making judgments about it.

Growth today is an investment for tomorrow.

Big-picture thinkers broaden their outlook by striving to learn from every experience. They don't rest on their successes, they learn from them.
