If you're going down the wrong path, speeding up isn't going to help.
~ Orrin Woodward
Action w/o orchestration is burn out, orchestration w/o action is management, action with orchestration is leadership.
To lead from the front you must get off your behind.
Successful people achieve because they think beforehand when it works & think afterwards when it doesn't work.
The difference between success & failure isn't ability as much as action.
You will never know what could have been done until you start doing what needs to be done.
Never let what you don't know stop you from doing what you do know.
Don't mistake thinking for action & don't mistake action for results.
Many lose through never starting. A job well begun is half done.
Every leader has the courage to make decisions. No decision is usually the worst decision.
You can be on the right track and still get run over if you're not moving.
You won't get ahead until you get off your behind.
You must believe to see, see to do, do to improve, and improve consistently to win; therefore, believing is the key to winning.
A person doesn't feel, then act; rather, he acts, then feels. Change actions to change feelings.
Since a leader cannot rise above his thinking, he must assault his limiting beliefs daily thru reading, listening & associating.
Thinking is the toughest kind of work which is why so many people avoid it.
There are no dead ends in life, only dead end thinking.
Whereas goodness makes greatness teachable, greatness makes goodness touchable.
Politics is the art of saying well that which may or may not be true.
A fool is someone whose arrogance is only surpassed by his ignorance.
Modern society drinks in streams of information while dying of wisdom thirst.
Big mouths and small brains make the strangest noises.
I would rather suffer with truth than celebrate with lies.
In a world that loves lies, truth is subject to the greatest libels.
Success corrupts character when a person loses the spirit of thankfulness.
Quality of work is directly related to the quality of a person's character.
The gap between intentions and actions is character.
The character to follow thru on commitments made to others is built by following thru on commitments made to self.
The true test of character is to live win-win even when promoted to positions where win-lose is possible.
The only thing you can take with you when you die is what you are. Character counts more than possessions.
Absolute power doesn't corrupt, but rather, reveals character.
People will follow you when you build the character to follow through.
Leaders do what ought to be done whether their deeds are known by thousands or known by no one.
Something for nothing given to one group is nothing for something taken from another.
The more you free your heart from sin, the more your heart is free to serve.
Too many non-achievers confuse humility with humiliation.
Vision and persistence will take you to the top of the leadership mountain, but only humility will keep you there.
Ingratitude produces pride while gratitude produces humility.
Defeats are merely repeats with better information.
It's not what you eat that will kill you as much as what is eating you.
