A group of followers has strength because of its numbers. A following has power because of its beliefs.

Success always takes help. Failure is done alone.

The trick to balance is to not make sacrificing important things become the norm.

Would anybody be offended if we gave a $150 million bonus to Gandhi? How about a $250 million bonus to Mother Teresa? Do we have an issue with that? None at all. None at all. Great leaders would never sacrifice the people to save the numbers. They would sooner sacrifice the numbers to save the people.

All organizations start with WHY, but only the great ones keep their WHY clear year after year. Those who forget WHY they were founded show up to the race every day to outdo someone else instead of to outdo themselves. The pursuit, for those who lose sight of WHY they are running the race, is for the medal or to beat someone else.

Disney is one of the best hotel companies in the world. Yet they have never and will never open a casino on the Vegas strip.
Simon Sinek
Quality effective leaders have the confidence to trust others to try, succeed, and sometimes to fail. We very often confuse personality with leadership. In other words, leadership is not about being a nice person or not a nice person.
Simon Sinek
I have to have an impact. That's what drives me to practice to make sure my words are clear and my stories are compelling. Right. Because it matters.
Simon Sinek
A movement only exists when people are inspired to move, to do something, to make the cause their own.

I'm interested in the left side of the Bell Curve.
Simon Sinek
Our goals should serve as markers, measurements of the progress we make in pursuit of something greater than ourselves.
Simon Sinek
Humility, I have learned, must never be confused with meekness. Humility is being open to the ideas of others.
Simon Sinek
Good listeners have a huge advantage. For one, when they engage in conversation, they make people 'feel' heard. They 'feel' that someone really understands their wants, needs and desires. And for good reason a good listener does care to understand.
