We don’t do business with companies. We do business with people.

If you're going to undertake any project, like a book, you have to show up to give.

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.

A true friend is someone with whom protocol is no longer necessary.

There are leaders, and there are those who lead. Leaders are those who hold a position of power or authority. But those who lead are those who inspire us. And it's those who start with why, that have the ability to inspire those around them or find others who inspire them.

Genius is in the idea. Impact, however, comes from action!
Simon Sinek
Image
When we help ourselves, we find moments of happiness. When we help others, we find lasting fulfillment.

We should all have an opportunity to feel a part of something not just have a part in something.
Simon Sinek
Image
We invest in things like the future, like our children, like education. In other words, we invest in things that we understand we will not see an immediate return of investment but everybody knows it will have a positive impact and you can easily measure it over the course of time. Your why is exactly the same thing.

Image
We are drawn to leaders and organizations that are good at communicating what they believe. Their ability to make us feel like we belong, to make us feel special, safe and not alone is part of what gives them the ability to inspire us.
Simon Sinek
Image
If somebody wants to learn their why, either you help them or send them over to their course. All of this stuff helps.

Risk deters those who see what they could lose. Those focused on the gain see it as a necessary part of their journey, even if the possibility of loss exists.
