people tough-times littles
With a little faith in themselves people, people can do miraculous things. But without it, they have a really tough time.
becoming persons knows
See what a person is doing every day, day after day, and you'll know who that person is and what he or she is becoming.
greatness skills achievement
No one achieves greatness by becoming a generalist. You don't hone a skill by diluting your attention to its development. The only way to get to the next level is focus.
believe people communicate
It's one thing to communicate to people because you believe you have something of value to say. It's another to communicate with people because you believe they have value.
preparation
Everyone who got where he is started where he was.
fall pride leader
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.
dream vision teammate
Your teammates will stretch your vision or choke your dream.
clarity audience communicators
Great communicators leave their audiences with great clarity.
leadership successful people
It takes a lot of people to create a success. That's why I say that few leaders are successful unless a lot of people want them to be.
leadership followers care
In my experience, followers always ask leaders 3 questions: 1) Do you care 4 me? 2) Can you help me? 3) Can I trust you?
running team taken
No matter your title, people will not follow you if they don’t trust you. Whether you are just taking over a team or working to implement large-scale change within one, you are guaranteed to run into resistance if you haven’t taken time to establish a foundation with the people you oversee before turning their worlds upside down.
attitude winning men
If you think you are beaten, you are. If you think you dare not, you don't. If you'd like to win but think you can't it's almost certain you won't. Life's battles don't always go to the stronger or faster man, but sooner or later, the man who wins is the man who thinks he can. A happy person is not a person with a certain set of circumstances, but rather a person with a certain set of attitudes. I may not be able to change the world I see around me, but I can change the way I see the world within me.
leadership opportunity journey
Good leaders understand that they are stewards. They must find the best people they can, giving them the opportunity to join in the journey developing them, and encouraging them to reach their potential. But they must hold on to people lightly. Those who start with you seldom finish with you.
player people doers
Are you a thinker, a doer, or a clutch player? The better you are, the greater potential for influence you will have with your people.
