Look at our society. Everyone wants to be thin, but nobody wants to diet. Everyone wants to live long, but few will exercise. Everybody wants money, yet seldom will anyone budget or control their spending.

Leaders will not experience long-term success unless a lot of people want them to.

One is too small a number to achieve greatness. No accomplishment of real value has ever been achieved by a human being working alone.

Great communication depends on two simple skills-context, which attunes a leader to the same frequency as his or her audience, and delivery, which allows a leader to phrase messages in a language the audience can understand.

The better you are at surrounding yourself with people of high potential, the greater your chance for success.

The key to your success, to my success, to everyone's success is determined by our daily agenda. What you and I do every day is either making us or breaking us, we're either preparing or repairing. So when somebody says, 'John, I want to be a success. Where do I start?' I say, It's very simple. Start with today.

Success is a continuing thing. It is growth and development. It is achieving one thing and using that as a stepping stone to achieve something else.
