“When you realize that people treat you according to how they see themselves rather than how you really are, you are less likely to be affected by their behavior.

This type of stability will have a tremendous effect on how you feel toward and deal with others. The key to successful relationships really gets down to responsibility.

I can’t choose how you’ll treat me, but I can choose how I will respond to you.”

“In my first leadership position, I mistakenly thought that being named the leader meant that I was the leader. Back then I defined leading as a noun—as the position I was appointed to—not a verb—as what I was doing. Though I had been hired as the senior pastor, I quickly discovered the real leader of the church was a down-to-earth farmer named Claude, who had been earning his leadership influence through many positive actions over many years.
