Together is Better
My favourite quotes from Simon Sinek about leadership, fulfillment and purpose
Together is Better by Simon Sinek is a nice contrast to other business books. It teaches through short quotes and pictures about the journey that comes from leadership. With many fascinating quotes, it’s a call to all of us to become leaders.
Most of us live our lives by accident — we live as it happens. Fulfillment comes when we live our lives on purpose.
In Napoleon Hill’s Think and Grow Rich, he says that successful people have a burning desire and a strong purpose — without which you won’t get what you want. If you know what you want, you can at least take the first few steps to get there, and you know what you are willing to give up to get it, that, in a nutshell, is the secret to success.
Leadership is not about being in charge. Leadership is about taking care of those in your charge.
By now, being a manager, supervisor or CEO does not mean you are a leader. Management is not equal to leadership. Look at some of the bosses you have. Are they managers or leaders? Why?
Leadership is not a rank or position to be attained. Leadership is a service to be given.
