Colin Powell was the first African American appointed as the U.S. Secretary of State; he was the first, and so far the only one, to serve on the Joint Chiefs of Staff. He was a pioneer for change and was an integral piece of America’s past few decades. There’s definitely a lot to learn from his lifestyle and his journey. What better than the lessons shared by the man himself? Here are 7 most powerful quotes by Powell on life, dream, and success.
1. “A dream doesn't become reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination and hard work.”
2. “Avoid having your ego so close to your position that when your position falls, your ego goes with it.”
3. “If you are going to achieve excellence in big things, you develop the habit in little matters. Excellence is not an exception, it is a prevailing attitude.”
4. “Perpetual optimism is a force multiplier.”
5. “Surround yourself with people who take their work seriously, but not themselves, those who work hard and play hard.”
6. “The healthiest competition occurs when average people win by putting above average effort.”
