Successful people become great leaders when they learn to shift the focus from themselves to others.

The Great Western Disease is that we fixate on the future at the expense of enjoying the life we're living now.

People who believe they can succeed see opportunities where others see threats.

‎Daniel Farb, ‎Bruce Gordon (2005)

The more we are committed to believing that something is true, the less likely we are to believe that its opposite is true, even in the face of clear evidence that shows we are wrong.
