Andy Stanley wrapped up the day with "Five Random Thoughts on Leadership." They were all wall-worthy. Actually, they are thoughts he has on his wall. He is still struggling with each of them:

1. "To reach people no one else is reaching, we must do things no one else is doing."
- Craig Groeschel (Pastor of lifechurch.tv)

2. "The Next Generation product almost never comes from the previous generation."
-Focus, Al Reis

3. Ask yourself: "What do I believe is impossible to do in my field...but if it could be done would fundamentally change my business?"
-Future Edge/The Paradigm Book, Joel Barker

4. Ask yourself: "If we got kicked out and the board brought in a new CEO, what would he do? Why shouldn't we walk out the door, come back in, and do it ourselves?"
-Only the Paranoid Survive, Andy Grove (Intel)

5. "When your memories exceed your dreams, the end is near"
-Michael Hammer

And a bonus: "Success breeds complacency, complacency breeds failure." - Andy Gove
