The person who makes promises to everyone ultimately pleases no one.

If you don't respect your time, no one will respect your time.

I love reading - inspirational books, leadership books, biographies. I exercise a lot and put on my audio book. Even If you would offer me a million dollars for my iPod I wouldn't give it to you, because I have some great things on it.

We can Fire a missile across the world with pinpoint accuracy, but we trouble keeping a date with our children to go to the library.

I often joke with my audiences that I make most of my income on a ski pole. People smile but they get my point. You need to make time for your genius to flow. We get our creative bursts, those idea torrents that take our business and personal lives to the next level, while we are skiing or drinking coffee in a Starbucks or walking in the woods or meditation with a sunrise. Those pursuits are not a waste of time. Creativity comes when you are relaxed, happy and enjoying the moment. And when it comes, it brings ideas that rock your world.

Each day life sends you chances to learn, grow and step into your best. Don't miss them.

Don't ask for respect. Earn it.
