Want to have a short phone call with someone? Call them at 11:55 a.m., right before lunch. They'll talk fast. You may think you are interesting, but you are not more interesting than lunch.

Find your passion and follow it. You wont find that passion in things or money. Your passion must come from what fuels you from the inside. It will be grounded in the relationships you have with people and what they think of you when your time comes.

To-Do lists help us break life into small steps.

Fundamentals, fundamentals, fundamentals. You’ve got to get the fundamentals down because otherwise the fancy stuff isn’t going to work.

When you're frustrated with people, when they've made you angry, it just may be because you haven't given them enough time.

Do not tell people how to live their lives. Just tell them stories and they will figure out how those stories apply to them.

We don't beat the Reaper by living longer. We beat the Reaper by living well.
