When we do what we have to do we are compliant. When we do what we choose to do we are committed.

Look to the present. The great disease of 'I will be happy when ...' is sweeping the world. You know the symptoms. You start thinking: I'll be happy when I get that ... BMW ... promotion ... status ... money. The only way to cure the disease is to find happiness and meaning now.

Never confuse acquiring degrees with wisdom.

Those who lead by example and demonstrate passion for what they do make it much easier for their followers to do the same.

If 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.

The only way to cure the disease is to find happiness and meaning now.

Leadership is providing inspiration and vision, then developing and empowering others to achieve this vision.
