Stephen Covey Inspire Quotations

Over time, I have come to this simple definition of leadership: Leadership is getting results in a way that inspires trust.

Human beings are not things needing to be motivated and controlled; they are four dimensional - body, mind, heart, and spirit.

The 8th Habit, then, is not about adding one more habit to the 7 - one that somehow got forgotten. It's about seeing and harnessing the power of a third dimension to the 7 Habits that meets the central challenge of the new Knowledge Worker Age. The 8th Habit is to Find Your Voice and Inspire Others to Find Theirs.

Once you've found your own voice, the choice to expand your influence, to increase your contribution, is the choice to inspire others to find their voice.

Inspire (from the Latin inspirare) means to breathe life into another.

We see the world, not as it is, but as we are──or, as we are conditioned to see it.
