Of all the things a leader should fear, complacency heads the list.
The more credible you are, the more confidence people place in you, thereby allowing you the privilege of influencing their lives.

Nothing speaks like results. If you want to build the kind of credibility that connects with people, then deliver results before you deliver a message. Get out and do what you advise others to do. Communicate from experience.
If you can become the leader you ought to be on the inside, you will be able to become the person you want on the outside. People will want to follow you. And when that happens, you’ll be able to tackle anything in this world.
A leader can give up anything – except final responsibility.
Good character improves every aspect of a person’s life.
