Anybody can change, but they have to want to change.

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.

After living with their dysfunctional behavior for so many years, people become invested in defending their dysfunctions rather than changing them.

What got you here won't get you there.

Successful people become great leaders when they learn to shift the focus from themselves to others.

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

The more we are committed to believing that something is true, the less likely we are to believe that its opposite is true, even in the face of clear evidence that shows we are wrong.
