Success in its highest and noblest form calls for peace of mind and enjoyment and happiness which come only to the man who has found the work that he likes best.
The great leaders of business, industry and finance, and the great artists, poets, musicians and writers all became great because they developed the power of self-motivation.
Leadership is lifting a person’s vision to high sights, the raising of a person’s performance to a higher standard, the building of a personality beyond its normal limitations.
Success comes from delegating, risk-taking and having a good TEAM!
It takes humility to seek feedback. It takes wisdom to understand it, analyze it and appropriately act on it.
Leadership is communicating people’s worth and potential so clearly that they come to see it themselves.
A person’s success in life can usually be measured by the number of uncomfortable conversations he or she is willing to have.
Leadership is not about a title or a designation. It’s about impact, influence and inspiration. Impact involves getting results, influence is about spreading the passion you have for your work, and you have to inspire team-mates and customers.
You are not your resume, you are your work.
The very important thing you should have is patience.
I’ve seen over and over how much self-belief drives outcomes. And that’s why I force myself to sit at the table, even when I am not sure I belong there – and yes, this still happens to me. And when I’m not sure anyone wants my opinion, I take a deep breath and speak up anyway.
Don’t show up to prove. Show up to improve.
Do what you love and success will follow. Passion is the fuel behind a successful career.
The three things that motivate creative people – autonomy, mastery, purpose!
If you want to become successful, seek to become a person of value.
The greatest enemy of progress is your last success. You could become so proud of what you’ve already accomplished that you stop moving ahead to what you can still accomplish.
Becoming is better than being.
Success requires both urgency and patience. Be urgent about making the effort, and patient about seeing the results.
Great leaders encourage leadership development by openly developing themselves.
Pursue your goals even in the face of difficulties, and convert adversities into opportunities.
