Leadership is a choice. It's not a rank, it's a choice. I know many people who are at the top of their organization who have authority. We have to do what they say because they have authority over us. But they're not leaders. We wouldn't follow them. They may be at the top of the company but they're not leaders.

No matter how many or how few people you have reporting to you, you must remember that as you climb higher in the ranks, your words will be taken as commands even if you're just thinking out loud.

Inspire people to do the things that inspire them and, together, we can change our world.

Ideas are like dreams; they will disappear unless we record them. Write a book, a blog, build a company, anything that makes the ideas real.

If you want to feel happy, do something for yourself. If you want to feel fulfilled, do something for someone else.

Those who fear the new are the ones who have mastered the old.

Dream big. Start small. But most of all, start.
