To be true to ourselves, however, is not an easy task. We must break free of the seductions of society and live life on our own terms, under our own values and aligned with our original dreams. We must tap our hidden selves; explore the deep-seated, unseen hopes, desires, strengths and weaknesses that make us who we are. We must understand where we have been and where we are going.

Be so good at what you do that no one else in the world can do what you do.

A problem only becomes a problem when we choose to see it as a problem

Understand that a problem is only a problem if you choose to view it as a problem (vs. an opportunity).

Your struggles have not been a waste. They've come to strengthen you. And grow your capacity to lead - and win.

The secret of passion is purpose.

Fear is nothing more than a mental monster you have created, a negative stream of consciousness
