Surround yourself with great people; delegate authority; get out of the way

If you surround yourself with the wrong people, if you surround yourself with people that constantly tell you how great you are and never tell you the truth and just tell you what you want to hear, I would imagine it would be very easy to get above yourself.
Government is necessary, but the only rights we can delegate to government are the ones we possess. For example, we all have a natural right to defend ourselves against predators. Since we possess that right, we can delegate authority to government to defend us. By contrast, we don't have a natural right to take the property of one person to give to another; therefore, we cannot legitimately delegate such authority to government.
Surround yourself with the best people and then get out of their way. Give them a chance to exceed your expectations and they usually will.
You can delegate authority, but you cannot delegate responsibility.

Surround yourself with good people; surround yourself with positivity and people who are going to challenge you to make you better.
Always surround yourself with people who are better than you. If you're hanging around bad people, they're going to start bringing you down . . . But, if you surround yourself with good people, they're going to be pulling you up.
When you delegate tasks, you create followers. When you delegate authority, you create leaders.
