The whole idea of motivation is a trap. Forget motivation. Just do it. Exercise, lose weight, test your blood sugar, or whatever. Do it without motivation. And then, guess what? After you start doing the thing, that's when the motivation comes and makes it easy for you to keep on doing it.

Nothing speaks like results. If you want to build the kind of credibility that connects with people, then deliver results before you deliver a message. Get out and do what you advise others to do. Communicate from experience.

The success of a vision is determined by its ownership by both the leader and the people.

Everyone you know and all the people you meet have the potential to be someone important in the lives of others.

Never allow others to put obstacles in the pathway of your dreams

You build trust with others each time you choose integrity over image, truth over convenience, or honor over personal gain.

Good leaders must communicate vision clearly, creatively, and continually. However, the vision doesn't come alive until the leader models it.
