Some Say That Fear Has Two Meanings…

Forget Everything And Run….

or

Face Everything And Rise….

But I prefer Will Smith’s view in the film After Earth….

“Fear is not real. The only place that fear can exist is in our thoughts of the future. It is a product of our imagination, causing us to fear things that do not at present and may not ever exist. That is near insanity. Do not misunderstand me danger is very real but fear is a choice.”

You can do…

…what I cannot do. I can do what you cannot do. Together we can do great things

– Mother Teresa

Management is…

doing things right; leadership is doing the right things

– Peter F Drucker, Warren G Bennis

If one is lucky……

…….. a solitary fantasy can totally transform one million realities.

– Maya Angelou

People try so hard…….

….. to believe in leaders now, pitifully hard. But we no sooner get a popular reformer or politician or soldier or writer or philosopher — a Roosevelt, a Tolstoy, a Wood, a Shaw, a Nietzsche, than the cross-currents of criticism wash him away. No man can stand prominence these days…..  it is the surest path to obscurity. People get sick of hearing the same name over and over.

– F Scott Fitzgerald

 

The first responsibility….

……. of a leader is to define reality.

– Max De Pree

Leadership is…..

……. the dream made reality.

– John C Maxwell

Every age fraught with……

……. discord and danger seems to spawn a leader meant only for that age, a political giant whose absence, in retrospect, seems inconceivable when the history of that age is written.

– Dan Simmons

“People in any organisation….

…… are always attached to the obsolete – the things that should have worked but did not, the things that once were productive and no longer are.”

– Peter F Drucker

“When you’re existing…..

….. life happens to you, and you manage; when you’re living, you happen to life and you lead.”

– Steve Maraboli
