Investing in yourself is the best investment you will ever make. It will not only improve your life, it will improve the lives of all those around you.
The purpose of life is the life of purpose.
Change is hardest at the beginning, messiest in the middle and best at the end.
Daily ripples of excellence over time become a tsunami of success.
Become one of the rare people who don’t know how to quit.
Dream Big. Start small. Act now.
Less gossiping, more learning. Less complaining, more excelling. Less walls, more bridges. Less fear, more courage.
Cut your excuses in half and double your actions around your goals.
Fill your brain with giant dreams so it has no space for petty pursuits.
Every master was once a beginner. Every pro was once an amateur.
Great achievement always requires great sacrifice.
There are no mistakes in life, only lessons. There is no such thing as a negative experience, only opportunities to grow, learn and advance along the road of self-mastery. From struggle comes strength. Even pain can be a wonderful teacher.
Leave your ego at the door every morning, and just do some truly great work. Few things will make you feel better than a job brilliantly done.
Life is short. Be of use.
The greatest things in life all require commitment, sacrifice, some struggle and hardship. It’s not easy. But absolutely worth it.
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.
Leadership is not about executive position or title. It is about connection and influence. At its highest, leadership is all about adding value to the world and blessing lives through the work you do.
Basically, to lead without a title is to derive your power within the organisation not from your position but from your competence, effectiveness, relationships, excellence, innovation and ethics.
The quickest way to grow the sales of your business is to grow your people.
Leadership is no longer about position – but passion. It’s no longer about image but impact. This is Leadership 2.0.
