Achievement comes to someone when he is able to do great things for himself. Success comes when he empowers followers to do great things with him. Significance comes when he develops leaders to do great things for him. But a legacy is created only when a person puts his organization into the position to do great things without him.

The real leader holds the power, not just the position.

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

A man must be big enough to admit his mistakes, smart enough to profit from them, and strong enough to correct them.

Good people always rise to your level of expectation.

If you really want to be a successful leader, you must develop other leaders around you. You must establish a team.

I've worked very hard at giving excellent training and good materials, resources, books, and then the corporate community gives me respect. And I'm finding now that they really want a relationship with me, they're letting me in their lives, and of course, when you get in their lives you find a tremendous need for God.
