The most important habit is solitude, quiet time. People who enter their day by taking 45 minutes or an hour for themselves - meditation, prayer, inspirational reading, taking a walk - before they go for it in the real world do best.

Ken Blanchard

Ken Blanchard
Your business should be defined, not in terms of the product or service you offer, but in terms of what customer need your product or service fulfills. While products come and go, basic needs and customer groups stay around, i.e., the need for communication, the need for transportation, etc. What market need do you supply?
Ken Blanchard

Ken Blanchard
Most companies spend all their time looking for another management concept and very little time following up the one they have just taught their managers.
Ken Blanchard
Your customers are only satisfied because their expectations are so low and because no one else is doing better. Just having satisfied customers isn't good enough anymore. If you really want a booming business, you have to create Raving Fans.
Ken Blanchard
It never hurts to toot your own horn once in a while.
Ken Blanchard
People don't mind being challenged to do better if they know the request is coming from a caring heart
Ken Blanchard
When you touch - don't take. Touch people only when you are giving something - reassurance, support, encouragement, whatever
