Stop being conned by the old mantra that says, 'Leaders are cool, managers are dweebs.' Instead, follow the Peters Principle: Leaders are cool. Managers are cool too!

Leaders don't create followers, they create more leaders.

The magic formula that successful businesses have discovered is to treat customers like guests and employees like people.

If a window of opportunity appears, don't pull down the shade.

The leaders who work most effectively, it seems to me, never say 'I'. They don't think 'I'. They think 'we'; they think 'team'.

Celebrate what you want to see more of.

Excellence is not an aspiration. Excellence is what you do in the next five minutes.

Divas do it, golfers do it, pilots do it, violists do it, sprinters do it, soldiers do it, surgeons do it, astronauts do it...only business people think it isn't necessary to train.

The thing that keeps a business ahead of the competition is excellence in execution.

Change is not so much about being the first one to embrace a new idea, but being the first to forget an old one

Leaving the path to follow the heart, to help someone, is anything... but reckless.

One who is thankful for a slice of bread is more blessedthan one who is ungrateful for a loaf.

Gratitude is liberating. It is subversive. It helps us to realize that we are sufficient, and that realization frees us.

Morality is the tendency to pour out the baby with the bathwater.

In love, you have loosened yourself like seawater

It's better to cry than be angry, because anger hurts others while tears flow silently through the soul and cleans the heart.
