Winners like to work with other winners. If you want to build a great business, you must hire the best. Because only the best can give you the best.

When you hire average, you get average. When you hire the best, you get the best. When you are around the best, you attract more excellent people into your world.

‘Work on your people, not for your people.’

‘Great leaders aren’t necessarily great coaches, but great coaches are great leaders.’

‘Complacency can be just as dangerous to the team’s morale as negativity.’

‘Managers spend too much time with the people who need the attention instead of those who deserve the attention.’

‘The way to move the middle up is to chop off the bottom and grow the top.’

‘A true game plan needs consistent reviewing, adjustments, and updates.’

‘We will do only what we are held accountable to do.’

‘Just because it has never been done doesn’t mean it can’t be done.’

‘Challenges make you go bigger.’

‘What makes you great is not what you’ve been doing for fifteen years- what makes you great is you.’

‘When we aspire toward intimacy with what matters to us, we overcome alienation and disconnection and feel more at home in the world.’

‘Working on concrete tasks with objective and measurable results is a source of deep satisfaction and helps to keep us humble and grounded.’

‘By building multiple rooms in your identity house, you become less fragile, gain resilience, and bolster yourself against setbacks.’

‘It is important that your goals align with your values.’

‘Worry less about heroic days and more about creating a heroic body of work.’

‘Show up every day and give what you’ve got.’

‘Whenever possible, keep it simple and be wary of hiding behind complexity.’

‘You don’t need to feel good to get going; you need to get going to give yourself a chance to feel good.’

‘The more stress in your life, the more you should try to offset it with rest.’

‘Rest and renewal do not come at the expense of your primary pursuit; they are integral parts of your primary pursuit and your commitment to excellence.’

‘Never prejudge performance.’
