“My dad encouraged us to fail. Growing up, he would ask us what we failed at that week. If we didn’t have something, he would be disappointed. It changed my mindset at an early age that failure is not the outcome, failure is not trying. Don’t be afraid to fail.”

“The “loneliness at the top” that senior officials often feel comes from the certain knowledge that they alone are responsible for the failure or success of the organization. They may share their authority with associates, but not their responsibility. When a sports franchise suffers a losing season, the general manager and the coaches are held accountable. They, not the individual players, are responsible for the failure of the team; the team merely followed orders. When you become the leader, when you set the course, you must accept responsibility for the outcome.”
— Napoleon Hill
“The natural state is health. We’re a health seeking, Spirit-seeking organism. Anything curtailing that produces disease or ill-at-ease. Then we pull ourselves in to see what is producing the pain or the illness. We may not contract ourselves consciously, because some of these emotional responses are automatic. Those habitual emotional responses can be changed – and it’s a tremendous job”
— John-Roger
