Long ago, I stopped buying- let alone reading, books that talk about organizational success but fail to emphasize the importance of TRUST

Our fulfillment in life and career meets with success when we give our best as per our unique talent, gifting, strengths while willing to team up with others in the areas of our limitations...
If you closely scrutinize relationships everywhere that struggle, in most cases, it is due to lack of self-awareness of one or both parties...
People are attracted to leaders who are skillful in motivating them to become more, do more, and achieve more...
We all have sweet spots when triggered, we unleash our potential. Best motivation is when it comes from within. Find your sweet spots and get motivated to accomplish extraordinary things!!!
When we hesitate to change on time, we predispose ourselves to miss the boat that would take us to our envious future...
There should not be any excuse. If we don’t like our heritages, we've the power to change them for good. Let’s go beyond using lame excuses...
Your mind is working on your future based on a suggestion. The question is on whose suggestion it's working on: Yours or others?
Our values have led us where we are in life right now. We can't excel beyond the power behind our values that we have embraced...
The world under your feet is changing & you never noticed, it's on you. If you're changing & the world failed to notice, it's not on you...
If your focus is on your failures, limitations, & fears, you've one sure destination. You'll get drowned. If not now, at the end of the day!
Take away your eyes from your past failures, current limitations, and future fears. Be hopeful, believe in yourself, be bold, and move on...
Skill, education, money aren't the difference makers, passion is. If you've passion to achieve something, there's nothing that can stop you.
If you've passion- the desire to succeed at all cost, there won't be any lack or limitation that could stop you. Passion wipes out excuses.
Time and again, I've met or read about people who succeeded against all kinds of odds because they had passion. You're passion away to win!
If your destiny is glorious, a protracted journey filled with ups and downs is ahead of you. Sit down and strategize to outlast your challenges.
If s/he is intimidated by your achievements so far, s/he shouldn't be in your future because s/he cannot handle what is coming...
I no longer think that laziness is all about being idle. I now know when I become lazy- when I stop learning new things, and cease to grow.
Building trust takes long- years, sometimes decades. It takes a second, a word, or a misstep to lose it. Regaining trust takes even longer.
It's not your knowledge, skill, status & good look that enable you to do great things. It's your trustworthiness. But, you've to EARN it...
You could be a very trustworthy person. It doesn't matter! If they just met you, they decide to trust you or not in the 1st 3 - 4 seconds...
Deep inside, you know it. You're trustworthy. Sadly, you may come across untrustworthy. What are robbing your credibility? Find and fix it!
If we aren't trustworthy to our own words and values, why should we expect others to trust us with their resources, let alone with their lives?
Even if you communicate sincerely and your intentions are upright, if people don’t have trust, they speculate your every move...
When people don't trust you, they may walk with you but they second guess every step you take- don't believe what you say is what you mean...
Many people desire to be trusted but they don’t do things that make them trustworthy...
Your track record, and great achievements may prompt people to invest their resources such as time and money, not their heart.
PROMISING, VOWING...cannot earn us trust. Trust can't be generated overnight. No SHORT CUT! It takes DOING over a very long period of time.
Love could be instant and unconditional but trust develops through time. You may not trust wholeheartedly while loving someone unconditionally.
Many forgiven me for my missteps. I know, I'm BIG mouthed. Thank you for giving me a second chance. Because of you, I also forgive others...
I may not like everyone but love all. No one is worthy of occupying my heart. You scored a point, so what? Congratulations. You're forgiven!
Don’t jail your imagination. You cannot imagine beyond your desires. You can't unleash your imagination without the SEEDs of desire.
Don't confuse your mentor with your buddies. Unlike the latter, your mentor isn't contented with where you're in life right now...
Self-awareness is the key to find our uniqueness. The latter increases our chance to succeed in our personal, career, and business lives...
Having the big picture in mind enables us to overcome the day to day routines that attempt to distract us from pursuing our dream.
Setbacks are common enemies of both achievers and people whose dream cut short. The difference is that the former persist against continual setbacks while the latter quit.
Are you worthy of realizing your dream? If you said yes, there is no short cut. You're going to encounter setback after setback until you realize your dream.
You can only manage your thoughts, not your emotions. What are the emotions you're experiencing right now? What are the associated thoughts? Can you alter your thoughts? Practice! It's possible...
Every emotion that we experience on a moment-by-moment basis has origin. The origin is a thought (s).
Altering our distressing emotions is an uphill battle. When you experience undesirable emotional outburst, try to alter the thought behind.
