Leadership must first and foremost meet the needs of others.

Purpose and laughter are the twins that must not separate. Each is empty without the other.

Ego can’t sleep. It micro-manages. It disempowers. It reduces our capability. It excels in control.

Good leaders must first become good servants.

On an important decision one rarely has 100% of the information needed for a good decision no matter how much one spends or how long one waits. And, if one waits too long, he has a different problem and has to start all over. This is the terrible dilemma of the hesitant decision maker.

Love without laughter can be grim and oppressive. Laughter without love can be derisive and venomous. Together they make for greatness of spirit.

Not much happens without a dream. And for something great to happen, there must be a great dream. Behind every great achievement is a dreamer of great dreams. Much more than a dreamer is required to bring it to reality; but the dream must be there first.
