  2. If anyone wants to be first, he must be the very last, and the servant of all.

  3. HOPE, POSSIBILITY, and RENEWAL • Solutions always involve altering perspectives, replacing tunnel vision with an expanded view that lets in more light. • Possibility is the Oxygen upon which Hope Thrives

  4. The Royal Path of Life The seeds sown in life spring up in harvests of blessings or in harvests of sorrow. Whether our influence be great or small, whether it be for good or evil, it lasts; it lives somewhere, within some limit, and is operative wherever it is. We live and we die; but the good or evil we do lives after us, and is not buried with our bones. None are too small-too feeble-too poor to be of service. Haines and Yaggy

  5. Sizzling Customer Service Forgive and Forget Don’t hold grudges Don’t Judge-Don’t be someone else’s conscience Treat small customers like big customers First impressions are lasting impressions Treat others the way you want to be treated.

  6. Choose Miracles There are two ways to live your life. One is though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle. Einstein

  7. Choose a greater good If you aren’t better today than you were yesterday, then what was the purpose of yesterday?

  8. Life Life is not a test for which the passing grade is 100% and anything less is a failure. Kushner

  9. Be Yourself Did you ever see an unhappy horse? Did you ever see a bird that has the blues? One reason why birds and horses are not unhappy is because they are not trying to impress other birds and horses. --Dale Carnegie

  10. Anthropomaximology Successful people simply form the habit of doing things unsuccessful people don’t like to do. Albert Gray Anthropomaximology-The study of peak performing individuals, teams, and organizations.

  11. What can I give? Giving of yourself earns richness unmatched by dollars. It’s not how you get there but what you bring with you. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give. Kahlil Gibran

  12. These characteristics include: Listening Empathy Healing Awareness Persuasion Foresight Stewardship Conceptualization Reflection Teamwork Servant Leadership

  13. Mother Theresa “To keep a lamp burning we have to keep putting oil in it.”

  14. “Far and away the best prize that life has to offer is the chance to work hard at work worth doing.” Theodore Roosevelt

  15. Successful leaders see the opportunities in every difficulty rather than the difficulty in every opportunity. - Reed Markham, American writer, Salt Lake Community College

  16. Leadership is Action, not Position. - Moi

  17. If you try to be different on purpose you will end up being the same, if you try to just be yourself and follow your own nature you will stand out from all the rest. - Tomman

  18. There are moments in our lives when we find ourselves at a crossroads; afraid, confused, without a roadmap. The choices we make in those moments will define us for the rest of our days. Of course, when faced with the unknown, most of us prefer to turn around and go back. But once in a while people push onto something better. Something found just beyond the pain of going it alone, and just beyond the bravery and courage it takes to let someone in, or to give someone a second chance. Something beyond the quiet persistence of a dream. Because it's only when you're tested that you discover who you truly are. And it's only when you're tested that you discover who you can be. The person you want to be does exist, somewhere on the other side of hard work, faith and belief. And beyond the heartache and fear of what lies ahead. - one tree hill

  19. Senge Most of the outstanding leaders I have worked with are neither tall nor especially handsome; they are often mediocre public speakers; they do not stand out in a crowd; and they do not mesmerize an attending audience with their brilliance or eloquence. Rather, what distinguishes them is the clarity and persuasiveness of their ideas, the depth of their commitment, and their openness to continually learning more. They do not “have the answer.” But they do instill confidence in those around them that, together, “we can learn whatever we need to learn in order to achieve the results we truly desire.”

  20. Parker Palmer “Leadership is a concept we often resist. It seems immodest, even self-aggrandizing, to think of ourselves as leaders. But if it is true that we are made for community, then leadership is everyone’s vocation, and it can be an evasion to insist that it is not. When we live in the close-knit ecosystem called community, everyone follows and everyone leads.

  21. Parable shared by Desmond Tutu • “A traveler happened by and said, "That's not a chicken; that's an eagle." The farmer said, "No, it's just a funny-looking chicken." The farmer gave the bird to the traveler, who took it up to a mountain peak and said, "Fly, eagle, fly." And the eagle soared away. • "You say to children, 'you are not a chicken, you are an eagle. Fly, eagle, fly.'"

  22. Drucker Leadership is not rank, privileges, title or money. It is responsibility.

  23. Achieve Personal Excellence Our job is to KEEP HOPE ALIVE! You may be only one person in the world but… You may be the WORLD to one person. The “extra-mile” is never crowded.

  24. Filling your mind with Positives Filling your mind with positive thoughts is the finest insurance against old age, against the advance of physical disability, against the lack and loss of physical skills. Dr. Dale Turner

  25. Stewardship assumes first and foremost a commitment to serving the needs of others. It also emphasizes the use of openness and persuasion rather than control.

  26. A work in Progress Look at each person you meet as a person in progress. Then look in the mirror and see another person in progress. Carl Rogers

  27. Life is Short We have a limited number of heartbeats and we’re in charge of how we use them. Peter Alsop

  28. Love
