Leadership isn't answering the questions others ask. Leadership is asking others to answer their own questions.

I've been dogmatic to use myself as a case study.

Pursue the thing inside us and others will help us. Pursue the things outside us and others will compete with us.

I can't stand those people, speakers in a room, they say this all the time, "If I can just help one person in this room, I've done my job." You have an audience of 500 people and your standard of success is one person? That's terrible. If you help one person in the room, you're an abject failure. You have to change something.

Great leaders don't need to act tough. Their confidence and humility serve to underscore their toughness.

We should invest in people not ideas. A good idea is often destroyed by bad people and good people can always make a bad idea better.

The true price of leadership is the willingness to place the needs of others above your own. Great leaders truly care about those they are privileged to lead and understand that the true cost of the leadership privilege comes at the expense of self-interest.
