Our business in life is not to get ahead of others, but to get ahead of ourselves.

Obstacles are things a person sees when he takes his eyes off his goal.

Leadership cannot really be taught. It can only be learned.

Go as far as you can see when you get there, you'll be able to see farther.

When the best leader's work is done the people say, 'We did it ourselves.'

Without initiative, leaders are simply workers in leadership positions.

Give whatever you are doing and whoever you are with the gift of your attention.

Time is neutral and does not change things. With courage and initiative, leaders change things.

Management is about arranging and telling. Leadership is about nurturing and enhancing.

The key to being a good manager is keeping the people who hate me away from those who are still undecided.
