Henry Cloud
“Self-control is a big deal in human performance. Getting better depends upon it. You cannot get better if it’s not you who has to get better. You are the performer, period. You are the only thing you can control.”
Henry Cloud, The Power of the Other: The startling effect other people have on you, from the boardroom to the bedroom and beyond-and what to do about it

Henry Cloud
“People who are committed to mastery don’t freak out (as much) when they hit an obstacle. They reassess and then get going again, thinking they can get better.”
Henry Cloud, The Power of the Other: The startling effect other people have on you, from the boardroom to the bedroom and beyond-and what to do about it

Adam M. Grant
“Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.” Scott Adams”
Adam M. Grant, Originals: How Non-Conformists Move the World

Seth Godin
“When our responses turn into reactions and we set out to teach people a lesson, we lose. We lose because the act of teaching someone a lesson rarely succeeds at changing them, and always fails at making our day better, or our work more useful.”
Seth Godin, Linchpin: Are You Indispensable?
