gptkbp:famousQuote |
"Live out of your imagination, not your history."
"Seek first to understand, then to be understood." "The greatest risk is the risk of riskless living." "It's not what happens to us, but our response to what happens to us that matters." "To change ourselves effectively, we first had to change our perceptions." "Effective leadership is putting first things first. Effective management is discipline, carrying it out." "You have to decide what your highest priorities are and have the courage—pleasantly, smilingly, unapologetically—to say no to other things." "We see the world, not as it is, but as we are—or, as we are conditioned to see it." "I am not a product of my circumstances. I am a product of my decisions." "The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing." |
