“If employees are doing something wrong or are making a mistake, I am doubly careful not to hurt their feelings and make them feel small or embarrassed. I just use four simple steps: “First, I talk to them privately. “Second, I praise them for what they are doing well. “Third, I point out the one thing at the moment that they could do better and I help them find the way. “Fourth, I praise them again on their good points.”

“Take the initiative in building friendships—leaders always do. It’s easy and natural for us to tell ourselves, “Let him make the first move.” “Let them call us.” “Let her speak first.”
― David J. Schwartz, The Magic of Thinking Big

“Remember, the main job of the leader is thinking. And the best preparation for leadership is thinking.”
― David J. Schwartz, The Magic of Thinking Big

“The point is clear. People who get things done in this world don’t wait for the spirit to move them; they move the spirit.”
