in the long run , it never wins . What does win ? Kindness wins . Altruism wins . Servant leadership wins . Celebrating other people wins . Success isn ’ t measured by how many people know your name . It isn ’ t even measured by what you accomplish in your lifetime . It ’ s measured by your coaching tree , your mentoring chain . It ’ s measured by the fruit you cultivate in other people ’ s lives . It ’ s measured by the investments you make in people that , twenty years later , are still earning compound interest . It ’ s measured by what you give , not by what you receive ; and by who you serve , not by who serves you .
