The great Western disease is, โI'll be happy when... When I get the money. When I get a BMW. When I get this job. When I get the relationship,โ Well, the reality is, you never get to when. The only way to find happiness is to understand that happiness is not out there. It's in here. And happiness is not next week. It's now.
Marshall GoldsmithTreat every piece of advice as a gift or a compliment and simply say, โThank you.
Marshall GoldsmithThose who lead by example and demonstrate passion for what they do make it much easier for their followers to do the same.
Marshall GoldsmithIf we can stop, listen, and think about what others are seeing in us, we have a great opportunity. We can compare the self that we want to be with the self that we are presenting to the rest of the world. We can then begin to make the real changes that are needed to close the gap between our stated values and our actual behavior.
