In matters of ……

…. style, swim with the current; in matters of principle, stand like a rock.

– Thomas Jefferson

There are three……

…… essentials to leadership: humility, clarity and courage.

– Fuchan Yuan

A True Leader…..

……… has the confidence to stand alone, the courage to make tough decisions, and the compassion to listen to the needs of others. He does not set out to be a leader, but becomes one by the equality of his actions and the integrity of his intent.

– Douglas MacArthur

Leadership does……

….. not always wear the harness of compromise.

– Woodrow Wilson

A cowardly leader……

……. is the most dangerous of men.

– Stephen King

 

As you go…..

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

– Joseph Campbell

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

People who are……

……. not leaders automatically gravitate toward lines–limitations set by others. Many people are taught this in kindergarten when they are instructed to stay within the lines while colouring. But leaders are more creative than that. They look for options and opportunities. They try to take things in a new direction, or beyond the limit. Progress and innovation are made by people who think without lines.

– John C Maxwell

The ultimate measure….

…… of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.

– Martin Luther King Jr.

If leadership is….

…… the act of going beyond what is … it begins by going beyond what is within ourselves.

– Kevin Cashman
