I believe in destiny. But I also believe that you can’t just sit back and let destiny happen. A lot of times, an opportunity might fall into your lap, but you have to be ready for that opportunity. You can’t sit there waiting on it. A lot of times you are going to have to get out there and make it happen. — Spike Lee

Leadership is getting players to believe in you. If you tell a teammate you're ready to play as tough as you're able to, you'd better go out there and do it. Players will see right through a phony.

The Illusion of Knowledge is strongly supported by the Illusion of Self, particularly the ego. We identify ourselves with our knowledge. We defend what we know and get offended when it’s attacked. Since what we think is true is often different for different people, the attacks become frequent. It becomes a constant struggle to try to defend an ego. Undress. Leave your knowledge open to attacks. Be wise. Define yourself by openness to those who contradict what you 'know'. Be an explorer, a seeker of the truth, always ready to admit being wrong in order to continue the quest. — Mo Gawdat

We're getting ready to take over the world. My group of girlfriends - we're renegades. — Lisa Bonet

Cultivate an ever continuous power of observation. Wherever you are, be always ready to make slight notes of postures, groups and incidents.
