The true value of a leader is not measured by the work they do. A leader's true value is measured by the work they inspire others to do.

Putting yourself first is not selfish. Quite the opposite. You must put your happiness and health first before you can be of help to anyone else.

Pushing yourself to be the best is unsustainable. Simply push yourself to be better than the day before.

I go into every meeting, into every room and for every speech understanding the standard deviation, the Bell Curve. I know there are about 10-15 percent of people in the room, who say, "I've been trying to say this for years. Finally. I agree. Yes, yes, yes." I know there are about 15 percent of the people in the room who think I'm an idiot, who think I don't know what I'm talking about, who think I'm naive or I have oversimplified everything. The majority who are open to the ideal.

Trust doesn't develop from always doing the right thing. Trust comes from taking responsibility when we do the wrong thing.

I'm very clear about what I believe.
