If it takes seven days to make a living, you ought to be doing something else.

If you wish to enrich days, plant flowers; If you wish to enrich years, plant trees; If you wish to enrich Eternity, plant ideals in the lives of others.

Many of the unexpected opportunities we encounter are small but significant.

We must motivate ourselves to do our very best, and by our example lead others to do their best as well.

If we get better our customers will demand we get bigger.

If you're excited about what you're doing, it's a lot more likely that your employees will also be excited. People want to work for a person, not a company. It's about relationships.

In most cases we perform better when we're busy than when we're not busy. When we're slow, our mind wanders. We're not as attentive to our business. When we're on the firing line, we're sharper. We move more quickly and get the job done right.
