Men's Leadership Success Formula: Get up, Show up, Man up, Mentor up, and Move up!

No matter how much you water the ground, if the ground holds no seed then no plant is coming out. Don__ expect the plant to come out unless you have sown the seed

Walk and learn from the people that inspire you to do great things

Sometimes we need a wise guide to peel back the ceiling of our lives to remind us that infinity never places any limits on our skies.

People who can't be questioned often end up doing questionable things.

Education is the kindling of a flame, not the filling of a vessel.

Don't just become a monument of information, rather a solace of knowledge refuge.

Locate things that motivate you and surround yourself with people that inspire you

The more you become aware of and respond to the needs of others, the richer your own life becomes.

Searching for a mentor is similar to searching for a spouse: you two need to share common values, concerns, experiences, communication style, and, of course, have time to invest into meaningful conversations with one another.

Joyfully we undertake our daily work.

You meet dozens of people who tell you you can't do it. Surround yourself with the people who believe you will do it. Seek out and spend time with those rare people who tell you, no BS, why you haven't done it yet, what it takes to do it, and how they could help you do it. Note how this advice works whether 'it' is robbing a bank, opening a gallery, or writing a bestseller. "It" is up to you. But you can't do it alone.

The easiest way to have a peek behind the curtain is to learn from those that are ahead of you.

Allow the way to your great work to be guided by your service to others.

When the right stage gets missing, true talent that can grow to inspire, nurture and change lives least gets the right stage to manifest; real deft and dexterity remains latent and people only die with their dreams, abilities and capabilities.

when we work together, we achieve more. Character is not a concept that is simply spoken about, but actually manifests itself through our actions.

Mentorships, similar to other important relationships, usually end. Ideological differences and a need to chart a personal path might preclude parties from maintaining the original balance that stabilized a mentoring relationship. Conflict between an apprentice and his master is not always bad; in fact, it is almost inevitable, if the apprentice__ destiny is to exceed the accomplishments of the master.

Success shouldn't be revenge or a way to overwhelm the naysayers. If that is your reason, you are far from being content.
