On Doing More, Bosses vs. Leaders, and Wasting Your Life
Oct. 27 | The 3-Point Play
BASKETBALL TIP
Your only chance to approach your potential is to strive constantly to do more – always with a nagging sense of inadequacy, of having loafed and failed.
Satisfied players are rarely good ones.
― Dick DeVenzio
LEADERSHIP LESSON
“The boss drives his workers; the leader coaches them. The boss depends on authority; the leader on goodwill. The boss inspires fear; the leader inspires enthusiasm. The boss says ‘I’; the leader, ‘we’. The boss fixes the blame for the breakdown; the leader fixes the breakdown. The boss knows how it is done; the leader shows how. The boss says, ‘Go’; the leader says, ‘Let’s go!’
― John C. Maxwell
LIFE PRINCIPLE
“People are strange: They are constantly angered by trivial things, but on a major matter like totally wasting their lives, they hardly seem to notice.”
― Charles Bukowski
