A person of responsibility can trust himself to choose the right thing over the easy thing.

A great leader has the ability to instill within his people confidence in themselves.

If you can learn to understand people how they think, what they feel, what inspires them, how they're likely to act and react in a given situation- then you can motivate and influence them in a positive way.

If your desire is a 10 but your self-esteem is a 5, you'll never perform at the level of a 10. You'll perform as a 5 or lower. People are ever able to outperform their self-image.

If you treat every person you meet as if he or she were the most important person in the world, you'll communicate that he or she is somebody - to you.

The first important step in weathering failure is learning not to personalize it.

People can open doors for you, but you ... must walk through.
