Most people want to avoid pain, and discipline is usually painful.
From John C. Maxwell
There are two kinds of pride, both good and bad. 'Good pride' represents our dignity and self-respect. 'Bad pride' is the deadly sin of superiority that reeks of conceit and arrogance.
Time is more valuable than money, because time is irreplaceable.
Educators take something simple and make it complicated. Communicators take something complicated and make it simple.
A lack of realism in the vision today costs credibility tomorrow.
Leaders who fail to prune their pride will meet demise. That's not a guess, it's a guarantee. With pride, it's not a matter of 'if' we will fall, but 'when.' There are no exceptions.
As you get older, time speeds up but life slows down.
Failed plans should not be interpreted as a failed vision. Visions don't change, they are only refined. Plans rarely stay the same, and are scrapped or adjusted as needed. Be stubborn about the vision, but flexible with your plan.
Good leaders must communicate vision clearly, creatively, and continually. However, the vision doesn't come alive until the leader models it.
A minute of thought is greater than an hour of talk.
