When it comes to getting better, to knowing more, you do not know what you do not know.

To know more, to learn from other people’s mistakes, you must be willing to learn from others.

To do that, according to Dave Ramsey, ‘We don’t make decisions based on fear.’

‘You can count on criticism if you do anything of scale that matters. You can’t be afraid of criticism. It comes with the territory.’

‘You will only sacrifice when you passionately believe in the outcome.’

‘When you pour out yourself and your company in the marketplace you will begin to win, and as you win, expect criticism and complaints.’

‘Activity and success make rejection and nonfatal failure easier to work through emotionally.’

‘When you work with fired-up, talented people who love what they do, you have more fun than trying to gather a bunch of turkeys together and whip some work out of them.’

‘When someone is failing you should start by determining the root cause of the failure.’

‘Always treat people with dignity and be generous as you set them free, but have the courage to do so and you will actually be friends with some of the people you go through that process with.’

‘We don’t shoot our wounded. When we have mercy and give kindness to our team members who is legitimately hurting, we build huge loyalty with the rest of the team.’

‘Every day every behavior, attitude, and execution has to be led well by a courageous, loving leader.’

‘Have the courage to do the right thing, the right way, at the right time, and you will be on your way to becoming an EntreLeader.’
