Things don't happen to us. They happen for us.

If you don't need God to pull off what you are planning, you are not dreaming big enough.

The more humble and transparent a leader is, the more effective he or she will be.

Perfectionism is the mother of procrastination.

If you have a clear vision, you will eventually attract the right strategy. If you don't have a clear vision, no strategy will save you.

Sadly, I have met very few people who have a plan for their life. Most are passive spectators, watching their lives unfold, one day at a time. They are reactive rather than proactive. They may plan their careers, the building of a new home, or even a vacation. But it never occurs to them to plan their life.

When we are young, parents and teachers tell us we can do anything and become whatever we want. But as we grow older, these same people tell us we must be more realistic.
