Weak leaders shoot the messenger. Strong leaders praise the messenger, but truly great leaders promote the messenger. – Adam Grant

I say it all the time when it comes to gifting, but it also applies to life in general too. Most people settle for “what’s the least I can do” vs “what’s the most I could do” take that extra leap when it comes to your business and watch things change around you. – John Ruhlin

If you hit the wrong note, it’s the next note that you play that determines if it’s good or bad. – Miles Davis

There’s a fine line when training a team, between talking too much and not talking enough. I seem to error on the side of the former at the expense of the latter. – Dad

“Starting with why” can be confusing for leaders. What is supposed to be a “purpose” question, ends up being a laundry list of “brand promises” i.e. why do people buy from us, because we deliver fast, quality service, etc. The much better question is a “what” question i.e. what difference are you trying to make? What problem are you trying to solve in the world? What do you want to do with your life? What is your purpose? You’ll notice whenever someone describes their purpose it’s with a lot of “what” statements as well. – Verne Harnish

Everything should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler. – Albert Einstein
