How do you have the relationship with yourself that allows you to affect the world around you in the way in which you want to affect it?" "We all have something great inside us, and the question of this lifetime is, are you going to get it out or not?" "If you want to be great yourself, you should be an individual contributor … but if you want to be a leader, then you need to look at everyone that you lead and say, 'What is their greatness? Okay, what are the conditions that they need to express that?' And then you're responsible for that." "Create the experiences, and it's not about how much you spend on it either. It can honestly be something as simple as a walk around the neighborhood with your kid, but you're intentional about it, intentional with the discussion you're having. It's those kinds of things that stick." "Do something, man. Move the world forward."
