Knowing that an asteroid is going to hit the earth is not really useful if you are not planning to launch missiles to knock it out of the sky. You have to work massively overtime on the belief that innovation or massive change is going to happen.' — Tom Martin, former VP of marketing

To the disrupters go the spoils.
Nobody thought the direct business model would work. But work it did, and spectacularly. Until it didn’t. And therein lies the tale.
People can destroy people, People can also decorate. The former are misleaders, the latter are leaders.
~ Israelmore Ayivor
If you fall into a pit, you need a ladder, not a hoe. You must climb up and not dig up. Leaders discover the right way out of limitations.
We spend most of the time justifying the situation and not finding the real problem thus leaving minimal chance of solutions.
One thing we entirely forget when making decisions is the fact that the results concern and throw back to the decision maker not the one it seeks to please.
Leaders create influence with the clays of criticism others throw at them. They don't take offence, they take corrections.
A leader who sows confidence will reap excellency and legacy. A leader who sows fear will reap stagnancy or complacency.
Engaging solely to validate your opinion takes away from the character building process.
People can push people down, People can also push people up. The former are misleaders, the latter are leaders.
A goal shouldn't be limited to a title.
Leaders decorate the world, character is their paint. They live exemplary life and make the world better than they found it.
Leaders do not conform; they reform. If you conform, you are nurturing mediocrity. If you reform, you are breeding change.
There is no law against delaying action to weigh it in thought.
Friends can speed up your steps or slow down your pace. Leaders choose friends wisely, they are aware of the consequences.

~ Richie Norton
You can easily miss out on the joy of today by worrying about the “what if’s” of tomorrow. Tomorrow is not guaranteed, so bask in the joy of the day and tomorrows “what if’s” will take care of themselves.
~ Dewayne Owens
Simply thinking creatively is not the same as being innovative, and only those who risk breaking out of their comfort zone by putting thought into action will discover the profusion of opportunity that exists.
~ Michael Lum
Leaders do not play a what if game. They believe it will be and work it to be! Success is scarce because fear is common.
The only relevance worth to pursue, is living your passion through your interests.
Leaders' major question is why. If they lose, they ask why. If they win, they ask why. Their whys weave their wonders.
Get attached to your dreams; The but to that statement is, be open to all possibilities in your mission.
The altitude of any relation is possible through discourse.
It is easier to fall off the ladder once you on top, the balance is being aware of your environment.
People are tired of being told that it's possible... It's time to show them how it can be possible. Leadership is demonstration.
Leaders are interested in gains. However, they acknowledge that there is no gain without pain. They embrace the pain.
The ladder of leadership can only stand firm on the grounds of integrity. Any other ground makes it unstable till it falls.
