Everything…

…. that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves

– Carl Jung

Leadership consists…

… not in degrees of technique but in traits of character; it requires moral rather than athletic or intellectual effort and it imposes on both leader and follower alike the burdens of self-restraint

– Lewis H. Lapham

So much…

… of what we call management consists in making it difficult for people to work

– Peter Drucker

Our lives…

… begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter

– Martin Luther King

The content…

…. of your character is your choice. Day by day, what you choose, what you think and what you do is who you become. Your integrity is your destiny … it is the light that guides your way

– Heraclitus

Without leadership….

… command is a hollow experience, a vacuum often filled with mistrust and arrogance

– Eric Shinseki

Too bad…

…that most people stop rowing when they get to the rudder

– Alfred Polgar

I never…

… cease to be amazed at the power of the coaching process to draw out the skills or talent that was previously hidden within an individual, and which invariably finds a way to solve a problem previously thought unsolvable

– John Russell

Knowing…

… your own darkness is the best method for dealing with the darknesses of other people

– Carl Jung

Success is…

peace of mind, which is a direct result of self-satisfaction in knowing you made the effort to become the best of which you are capable

– John Wooden
