Most people know what to do, but they don't do what they know - because they haven't found their inner drive. Their passion.

Think of all your experiences as a huge tapestry that can be laid out in whatever pattern you wish. Each day you add a new thread to the weaving. Do you craft a curtain to hide behind, or do you fashion a magic carpet that will care you to unequaled heights?

It doesn't matter what you achieve, if you don't keep growing you'll feel dead.

It's not the events that shape my life that determine how I feel and act, but, rather, it's the way I interpret and evaluate my life experiences.

We want to avoid pain and have pleasure, so if our early attempts to achieve our dreams fail, we want to avoid the pain of future failure and rejection, so we stop trying and write it off with a broadbrush, "I'm just not driven enough, not well educated enough, not attractive enough, not smart enough."

There's always a way - if you're committed.

The ability to connect and influence people, that's the job of a leader. And we're all leaders at some level.
