A good hockey player plays where the puck is. 
A great hockey player plays where the puck is going to be.

Business development

There are two ways to extend a business. 
Take inventory of what you are good at and extend out from your skills. 
Or determine what your customers need and work backwards, even if it requires learning new skills. Kindle is an example of working backwards.

Quote by Jeff Bezos

Leadership - John Adams

If your actions inspire others to dream more,
learn more, 
do more and become more, 
you are a leader.

quote by John Adams

The realist

The pessimist complains about the wind
The optimist expects it to change
The realist adjusts the sails

quote by William A. Ward

Happiness

Some cause happiness wherever they go; 
others, whenever they go.

Borrow money

Always borrow money from a pessimist
He won't expect it back
