Because a true sense of purpose is deeply emotional, it serves as a compass to guide us to act in a way completely consistent with our values and beliefs. Purpose does not need to involve calculations or numbers. Purpose is about the quality of life. Purpose is human, not economic.

Complaining begets more complaints. Anger begets more anger. And optimism begets more optimism.

Great companies don’t hire skilled people and motivate them, they hire already motivated people and inspire them. People are either motivated or they are not. Unless you give motivated people something to believe in, something bigger than their job to work toward, they will motivate themselves to find a new job and you’ll be stuck with whoever’s left.

Great leaders see money as fuel, not a destination.

No matter when or where, always bring your 'A' game, because you never know when it will open doors for you.

Stories are attempts to share our values and beliefs. Storytelling is worthwhile when it tells what we stand for.

Failure is not tied to money; it is a mindset. Failure is when we accept the lot we are given.
