We see the essential divinity underlying the whole of the world's process of growth, and the fundamental rightness of helping that immense work forward as best we can in the time we have… The dichotomy between self and others, between responding to others' needs and taking care of one's own disappears, as one acquires the practical wisdom to see the intrinsic legitimacy of both and the relative priority of each.
~ John Firman quotes from Dimensions of Growth; p. 117-118
-
It's a funny thing about life; if you refuse to accept anything but the best, you very often get it.
-
In my 35 years in business I have always trusted my emotions. I have always believed that by touching emotion you get the best people to work with you, the best clients to inspire you, the best partners and most devoted customers.
-
The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. But the second best time is today.
-
No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because death is very likely the single best invention of life.
-
The best things cannot be told.
-
No one can ask another to be healed. But he can let himself be healed, and thus offer the other what he has received. Who can bestow upon another what he does not have? And who can share what he denies himself?
-
Overachievement is aimed at people who want to maximize their potential. And to do that, I insist you throw caution to the wind, ignore the pleas of parents, coaches, spouses, and bosses to be "realistic." Realistic people do not accomplish extraordinary things because the odds against success stymie them. The best performers ignore the odds. I will show you that instead of limiting themselves to what's probable, the best will pursue the heart-pounding, exciting, really big, difference-making dreams--so long as catching them might be possible.
~ John Eliot, Ph.D. quotes from Overachievement: The New Model for Exceptional Performance
-
Like squirrels, the best in every business do what they have learned to do without questioning their abilities - they flat out trust their skills, which is why we call this high-performance state of mind the "Trusting Mindset."
~ John Eliot, Ph.D. quotes from Overachievement: The New Model for Exceptional Performance
-
The best players in any high-stakes field - business, entertainment, law, surgery, as well as sport - recognize that pressure occurs at the moments when meaningful accomplishment is possible. In fact, that is the reason why performers perform: for the opportunity to tackle challenges head on, to do something significant, to demonstrate what their hard work and talent can produce.
~ John Eliot, Ph.D. quotes from Overachievement: The New Model for Exceptional Performance
-
Arrogant S.O.B.s run the world. A performer can never have too much self-confidence. The best in every field are likely to strike most people as irrationally confident, but that's how they got to the top.
~ John Eliot, Ph.D. quotes from Overachievement: The New Model for Exceptional Performance
-
Wisdom is the power to perceive the best ends to aim at and the best means for reaching those ends.
-
Intellect helps us to see the best means and manner of doing the right thing, but intellect never shows us the right thing.
-
The really great man is often considered selfish by a large group of people who are connected with him and who feel that he might bestow upon them more benefits than he does.
-
To excel means to reach beyond the best you have ever given because doing so matters to you personally, for its own sake. It means to run your own race—as an individual, team, or organization. To excel is to know your greatest strengths and passions, and to emphasize them while honestly admitting and managing your weaknesses.
~ Robert Cooper quotes from The Other 90%: How to Unlock Your Vast Untapped Potential for Leadership & Life
-
Independent of others and in concert with others, your main task in life is to do what you can best do and become what you can potentially be.
-
Finding the center of strength within ourselves is in the long run the best contribution we can make to our fellow men."
-
You have to decide what your highest priorities are and have the courage—pleasantly, smilingly, nonapologetically, to say “no” to other things. And the way you do that is by having a bigger “yes” burning inside. The enemy of the “best” is often the “good.”
~ Stephen R. Covey quotes from The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People
-
It's important to focus on what we do best and master one craft at a time.
~ Russell Simmons quotes from Do You!
-
The key ingredient to any kind of happiness or success is to never give less than your best.
~ Russell Simmons quotes from Do You!
