One of the deepest principles of life and leadership: it's not about you.

I grew up in New England. I think I was brought up with the Puritan ethic: that if you worked really hard in life, then good would come to you. The harder you work, the luckier you get. I've come to believe that it's the smarter you work, the better.

Things not worth doing are not worth doing well.

Vision is a lot more than putting a plaque on the wall. A real vision is lived, not framed.

Take a minute: look at your goals, look at your performance, see if your behavior matches your goals.

If God had wanted us to talk more than listen, he would have given us two mouths rather than two ears.

We are not just our behavior. We are the person managing our behavior.
