Peterson on Secret of Greatness

The secret of greatness is simple: do better work than any other man in your field – and keep on doing it.
–Wilfred A. Peterson

Change by Oprah

–Oprah Winfrey

Learning From Failure by Finesilver

You’ve failed many times, although you don’t remember. You fell down the first time you tried to walk. You almost drowned the first time you tried to swim. . . . Don’t worry about failure. . . . Worry about the chances you miss when you don’t even try.
–Sherman Finesilver
, US District Court Judge; quote received from WisdomTips.com

That’s a great quote. How true is that? I hear related quotes all the time. The bottom line is, you won’t know unless you try, and you’re going to miss all of the shots that you don’t make.

–John Wooden
quoted in Leadership Wired, Aug 2005

Zuiderveen on Success

The road of success is like running up an escalator going down, you need to keep running, if you walk, you stand still, if you stop you are going down!
–Anneloes Zuiderveen

Adams on Leadership

If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.
–John Quincy Adams
1767-1848, 6thPresident of the United States

Golden Rules

Live every day as if it were your last. Do every job as if you were the boss. Drive as if all other vehicles were police cars. Treat everybody else as if he were you.
