As you go…..

……. the way of life, you will see a great chasm. Jump.
It is not as wide as you think.

– Joseph Campbell

Do the difficult….

….. things while they are easy and do the great things while they are small. A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.

– Lao Tzu

Rely on your own…..

….. strength of body and soul. Take for your star self-reliance, faith, honesty and industry. Don’t take too much advice — keep at the helm and steer your own ship, and remember that the great art of commanding is to take a fair share of the work. Fire above the mark you intend to hit. Energy, invincible determination with the right motive, are the levers that move the world.

– Noah Porter

To be a great leader…..

…… and so always master of the situation, one must of necessity have been a great thinker in action.

– James Thomas

When you accept….

…… a leadership role, you take on extra responsibility for your actions toward others.

– Kelley Armstrong

Leadership is not….

…… a starring role. True leadership describes unified action of leaders and followers working together to jointly achieve mutual goals. It is collaborative.

– Gilbert Fairholm

If the experience ….

… of leadership is like being at the edge of an unfamiliar chasm, the act of leadership is building a bridge across that chasm.

– Kevin Cashman

The first act of leadership is …

….. coming to grips with yourself, who you are, where you are, and what is of value to you, and shaping yourself by acts of conscious will into what you want to become.

– Fenwick English

The leader continually……

……. passes on the vision to those who come around, knowing that dreams, if presented right, are contagious.

– John C. Maxwell

Leadership is not ….

…..something you own and keep for yourself. It is a responsibility you are entrusted with for a period of time, and it is a duty you fulfill.

– Keith Harrell
