Usually what happens is somebody grabs me and they always pull me off to the side. Nobody ever does it publically. They say, I didn't want to be here. Or, I don't usually like people like you. Or, I didn't believe the things you actually talked about would work. I'm here to tell you that you converted me. That happens a lot.

We can't all be good at everything. This is partly the logic behind having a team in the first place, so each role can be filled with the person best suited for that role and together, every job and every strength is covered.
Simon Sinek
Image
People who believe I'm an idiot don't hire me and they don't call.
Simon Sinek
Image
Great leaders see money as fuel, not a destination.
Simon Sinek
Image
No matter how many or how few people you have reporting to you, you must remember that as you climb higher in the ranks, your words will be taken as commands even if you're just thinking out loud.
Simon Sinek
Image
We call them leaders because they go first, because they take the risk before anybody else does, because they will choose to sacrifice so their people will be safe and protected.
Simon Sinek
Image
We don’t do business with companies. We do business with people.

Image
What I understand about this concept of why is that it functions exactly the same way as parenting or exercise or any of these things we claim to invest in.

Image
So much of starting a business or affecting change is the confidence and courage to simply try.
