The bottom line is, when people are crystal clear about the most important priorities of the organization and team they work with and prioritized their work around those top priorities, not only are they many times more productive, they discover they have the time they need to have a whole life.
Instead, I have an abundance mentality: When people are genuinely happy at the successes of others, the pie gets larger.
People can’t live with change if there’s not a changeless core inside them.
People simply feel better about themselves when they’re good at something.
I teach people how to treat me by what I will allow.
Live your life by a compass, not a clock.
As you care less about what people think of you, you will care more about what others think of themselves.
Courage isn’t absence of fear, it is the awareness that something else is important.
How different our lives are when we really know what is deeply important to us, and keeping that picture in mind, we manage ourselves each day to be and to do what really matters most.
I think the most significant work we’ll do in our whole life, in our whole world is done within the four walls of our home.
When we listen with the intent to understand others, rather than with the intent to reply, we begin true communication and relationship building. Opportunities to then speak openly and to be understood come much more naturally and easily.
The struggle comes when we sense a gap between the clock and the compass – when what we do doesn’t contribute to what is most important in our lives.
Independent will is our capacity to act. It gives us the power to transcend our paradigms, to swim upstream, to rewrite our scripts, to act based on principle rather than reacting based on emotion or circumstance.
As long as you think the problem is out there, that very thought is the problem.
You can’t talk your way out of a problem you behaved your way into!
An empowered organization is one in which individuals have the knowledge, skill, desire, and opportunity to personally succeed in a way that leads to collective organizational success.
Employers and business leaders need people who can think for themselves – who can take initiative and be the solution to problems.
We must look at the lens through we see the world, as well as the world we see, and that the lens itself shapes how we interpret the world.
Life is not about accumulation, it is about contribution.
We are the creative force of our life, and through our own decisions rather than our conditions, if we carefully learn to do certain things, we can accomplish those goals.
