This is not new: people do business with people they like, know and trust. Taking that axiom in to account, would YOU trust YOU?

FAIL UP. If something doesn’t go how you planned it, learn from it, do something differently next time. And, by the way, effort deserves credit. Pat yourself on the back!

Great leaders build trust from their team because the leader is willing to put his/her people “first.” Once the team believes that, they will put their leader, and the company, first as well.

Never make a sales pitch as the way you introduce yourself. What you CAN say is how you help people and businesses.

If you can look yourself in the mirror at the end of each day, knowing that you did your best, or helped someone out, or took the high road and acted with integrity, then that is an awesome day!

Great leaders are the first to say, “I was wrong. Let’s make a change.

It is the leader’s job to model and enforce the values and behaviors that make up the company culture. “Model” the behaviors is key. “Do as I say” only breeds contempt from others.

It’s great to spend time at a networking event with someone you know and like. But that’s not what you’re there for. Your goal is to expand your network by meeting new people.

All the time and effort put into networking can be all for naught if there is no follow-through. The same goes for sales. And leadership. And … well, everything.

Funny is always a good way to start when in doubt

I'm saying the American way is to overcome, to conquer, to come out on top. And we do it by spending and eating and screwing our women harder than anyone else. That's all I'm saying.

No! If you die, I die! You asked me to spend forever with you, and I'm going to!

I'm from Los Angeles... I don't trust any air I can't see.

You have to be stronger than your fears if you want to get anything done in this life.

Somewhere someone is looking for exactly what you have to offer.

Live a life of prayer, giving glory to God and continually listening for His guidance.

Since Democrats vs. Republicans has been obliterated, no real difference between parties.

Wouldn't a laugh serve us better than to battle it out with our mortal souls?

You have to be ready to sing and perform at any time.
