Welcome to the Mentoring Minute™ series. Each week, I’ll answer a reader question and provide at least one great idea on succeeding at work, winning at life, and enjoying it.

In my mobile app, Pocket Mentor, a daily guide that helps leaders avoid pitfalls and seize opportunities, I share road-tested advice, been there done that expertise, and cutting edge research that helps leaders grow every day.

Peppered throughout are quotes that have inspired me as I’ve launched my companies, nonprofits, mentored leaders, served on numerous boards, published articles, and raised our children.

On this week’s Mentoring Minute™ and blog post, I share 88 of my top leadership quotes that have profoundly inspired me, ignited new paths of thinking, and encouraged me when I failed. I hope these inspire you today!
