The cost of leadership is self-interest.

I'm simply following the journey.

The hardest part is starting. Once you get that out of the way, you'll find the rest of the journey much easier.

Communication is not about speaking what we think. Communication is about ensuring others hear what we mean.

I know if I persist it will pay back in dividends and it always does. What starts to happen is like exercise, the pain goes away. It starts to get easier and the weight starts to get lighter and people start to notice a difference in you and you start to notice a difference in yourself. You find your ability to make decisions is easier; you find you are inspired more often. You find your success increases. You find that your random moments when you're in the flow are no longer random and you can control them. Other people notice the difference.

Some see risk as a reason not to try. Some see it as an obstacle to overcome. The risk is the same; to try or not depends on your perspective.

When people are financially invested, they want a return. When people are emotionally invested, they want to contribute.
