A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.
If a person doesn't govern his temper, his temper will govern him.
Everything rises and falls on leadership.
When problems confront successful leaders, they get excited about the opportunity.
Leaders will not experience long-term success unless a lot of people want them to.
When I was 17, I made the decision to have a good attitude. I was a junior in high school; the coach said I was going to be the captain of my basketball team. I thought – that surprised me because I wasn’t the best player. John Thomas was better than me, and I was probably second or third best player. And I kept thinking, “Why am I going to be the captain?” I think everybody else was thinking that too. And the coach then answered, “The reason John is going to be the captain is he has the best attitude on the team. He encourages others, he believes we can win, he never gives up.”
