• You cannot separate leaders from people, and you cannot separate leadership from influence.

• Who you are as a person will always determine how far you go and how much you accomplish as a leader.

• Admitting that your leadership success depends primarily on you can be uncomfortable at first because it takes vulnerability and courage to look inward and face the fact that you might need to make some changes.

• True humility is recognizing who you are-nothing more, nothing less-with gratitude and grace.

• It’s been said that you teach others how to treat you by how you treat yourself.
