Be governed by your internal compass, not by some clock on the wall.

As you care less about what people think of you, you will care more about what others think of themselves.

As we create synergy among the roles of our lives, there's more of us to put into the time we have.

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.

Listen, involve, synergize at work. Then you will bury the old and create an entirely new winning culture which will unleash people's talents and create complementary teams where strengths are made productive and weakness are made irrelevant through the strengths of others.

Putting first things first means organizing and executing around your most important priorities. It is living and being driven by the principles you value most, not by the agendas and forces surrounding you.

If you are an effective manager of your self, your discipline comes from within; it is a function of your independent will.
