DAN MILLER

We're also fairly stubborn, I think, fairly independent. We have our share of difficulties with our federal government, although I've tried to as I am here encourage a better way of discussing those problems.

We share a wonderful, I think, physical or geographical heritage.

The heart of our relationship, this natural environment that has blessed us really all along the west coast of North America, on both sides of the border we've realized that this incredible natural wealth comes with a price.

My view is that while you do occasionally have differences you ought to have a process where you can sit down and talk about things. How else do you solve problems?

You know, we have our differences, everybody does, honest, real differences, but I do believe strongly that we as neighbors are drawn together far more than we're driven apart.

It's easy to focus on the things that divide us. Sometimes too easy.

In one line of his poem he said good fences make good neighbors. I'd like to think that Alaska and British Columbia working together can prove that we can be pretty darned good neighbors without fences.

The biggest advantage I have in this job is that I don't really want it.

Continual learning is the key to continual living.

True professional selling is simply sharing enthusiasm.

Find ways to embrace the things that make you unique, and you'll unlock the ways you can make a difference in the world.

Our expectations determine how we respond. Be careful what you expect.

Perfectionism is not as much the desire for excellence, as it is the fear of failure couched in procrastination .

The loss of a job may be the wake up-call needed to redeem the fire of your genius.

Circumstances will never determine your amount of happiness. Circumstances only highlight who you already are.

Your security is determined by your ability to define what it is you do that has value. The clearer you can be on what it is you do well and what provides value for someone else, the more security you have.

Choosing to associate with positive, optimistic people will accelerate our positive growth.

Have you ever noticed that even if God allows you to have a dream, you're expected to work to make it happen?

The difference between the successful and the troubled is not error-free living; it is that by discovering and implementing a life calling, the successful stand on their pile of trash while the troubled sit under theirs.

In today’s work arena, creativity may be more of an asset than competence.

Embrace the work opportunity you have today. It may be the stepping-stone you need on your way to success.

Meaningful work is within your grasp.

No high achiever ever woke up in the morning and said ‘let’s see what happens.’

Sorrow, anger and resentment look back, worry looks around, while faith, hope, and optimism look to the future.

Don't wait on perfect conditions for success to happen; just go ahead and do something!
