‘All of us in the business world, whether we realize it or not, signed up for a sales job.’

‘You are always selling. Your products. Your ideas. Your whole self.’

‘If you’re truly passionate about what it is you’re selling and can tell a story about why you love your product and your company, you don’t need to avail yourself of any slick tricks you might associate with selling.’

‘The feeling your customer leaves with after that conversation will inform their decision to come back or go somewhere else.’

‘You can’t own a business without owning your mistakes.’

‘Employees don’t really want an environment with no rules; they want to be engaged in a worthy cause and feel proud of what they create.’

Sometimes, no product is better than a substandard one.’

‘How you comport yourself in all your daily interactions with employees, clients, and peers is an act of salesmanship, because the way you act is an advertisement to keep working with you or run the other way, to dive in and invest more time and money in what you’re doing, or to cut losses and bounce.’

‘The healthiest businesses are the ones that operate in a culture of accountability.’

‘Moments of crisis reveal who a person really is.’

Your reality is your own reality. You are the only one who can change it.

If you like your reality, live it. If you do not like your reality, do something about it.

Don’t just talk about it. Do something about it.

‘Machines wear down and die. Living systems, if they learn and adapt, do not.’

‘A healthy living system is an intelligent learner. It can adapt and survive even though its environment is moving toward increasing disorder. But it must be actively engaged and aware, never losing focus on its environment. Failing to pay attention and adapt is a prescription for death.’

‘Sane leadership is the commitment to create the conditions for the finest human capacities- generosity, creativity, kindness- to blossom, protected from the external environment. It is the deep knowing that, even in the most dire circumstances, more becomes possible engage together with compassion and discernment, self-determining their best way forward.’

‘Once a system has tipped, it cannot reverse back to its former state. We need to learn to live with it, to adapt. And this is not always possible.’

‘A Warrior for the Human Spirit is a decent human being willing to serve an inhumane, indecent time.’
