Inability to make decisions is one of the principal reasons executives fail. Deficiency in decision-making ranks much higher than lack of specific knowledge or technical know-how as an indicator of leadership failure.

You can easily determine the caliber of a person by the amount of opposition it takes to discourage him or her.

Exceptionally hard decisions can deplete your energy to the point at which you finally cave in. If you mentally crumble and degenerate into negative thinking, you'll magnify the problem to the point where it can haunt you.

Integrity is important in building relationships. And is the foundation upon which many other qualities for success are built, such as respect, dignity, and trust.

What you are going to be tomorrow, you are becoming today.

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

Not everyone will become a great leader, but everyone can become a better leader.
