Try not to become a man of success, but rather try to become a man of value.

Grace is getting something undeserved. Mercy is not getting something that you do deserve.

Leadership is not a rank

or position to be attained.

Leadership

is a service to be given.

"God's gift to us: potential. Our gift to God:

developing it."

Artificial maturity versus authentic maturity. The struggle is real.

When Macy, my youngest daughter, she’s now in college. When she was in grade school, every time I was home, I would take her to school. I travel a lot, and it was just my moment to get to take her to school. And every Tuesday, taking her to school, inevitably I would get behind the trash truck. In other words, the trash truck on Thompson Mill Road.

A bad leader

cares more about

others hearing their ideas.

A good leader

cares more about

hearing ideas from others.

To understand yourself, watch what you envy."
