The law of process says — leaders develop daily, not in a day.

As you begin changing your thinking, start immediately to change your behavior. Begin to act the part of the person you would like to become. Take action on your behavior. Too many people want to feel, then take action. This never works.

To lead yourself, use your head; to lead others, use your heart. Always touch a person's heart before you ask him for a hand.

Diligent follow-up and follow-through will set you apart from the crowd and communicate excellence.

If you are a leader, you should never forget that everyone needs encouragement. And everyone who receives it - young or old, successful or less-than-successful, unknown or famous - is changed by it.

If the church is going to make a difference, it will need to go through the "big give-up" stage. Churches will need to quit being selfish and become relevant.

The harder you try to forget something, the more you think about it subconsciously.
