If you focus on principles, you empower everyone who understands those principles to act without constant monitoring, evaluating, correcting, or controlling.

The reflection of the current social paradigm tells us we are largely determined by conditioning and conditions.

Reactive people... are often affected by their physical environment. They find external sources to blame for their behavior.

Before a performance, a sales presentation, a difficult confrontation, or the daily challenge of meeting a goal, see it clearly, vividly, relentlessly, over and over again. Create an internal "comfort zone". Then, when you get into the situation, it isn't foreign. It doesn't scare you.

We do make a difference - one way or the other. We are responsible for the impact of our lives. Whatever we do with whatever we have, we leave behind us a legacy for those who follow.

Internal victories precede external victories.

Balance isn't either/or; it's 'and'.
