“Every person should have a lifetime self-improvement program.”

I believe that work if often the best antidote for grief.

There is a way; Up, Around, Over or Through.

Leaders teach. They motivate. They care. Leaders make sure that the way to success is always broad enough and straight enough for others to follow.

Never give up, because you never know if the next try is going to be the one that works.

The seeds you plant in the hearts and minds of others will be what you receive in return – 100-fold. Only sow that which you wish to receive in return. Sow good, receive good! Plant seeds daily in your Mary Kay business and your Mary Kay business will return to you.

My definition of happiness is having something to do what you love to do, someone to love, and something to look forward to.

There are two things people want more than sex and money, recognition and praise.

Real leaders aren’t afraid to get their hands dirty.

Think about it, no one can win a race in which he had given up. You can’t win a battle for which you have surrendered.

A strong beginning is a good thing only when coupled with a strong finish.

You cannot keep determined people from success. If you place stumbling blocks in their way, they will use them for stepping stones and climb to new heights.

I’ve never yet met a person who didn’t want to be appreciated.

Most people live and die with their music still unplayed. They never dare to try.

The speed of the leader is the speed of the gang.

God didn’t have time to create a nobody, just a somebody. I believe that each of us has God given talents within us waiting to be brought to fruition. Each person is unique and special.

Don’t limit yourself. Many people limit themselves to what they think they can do. You can go as far as your mind lets you. What you believe, remember, you can achieve.

The more you fail, recover, and improve, the better you are as a person.

Be committed to self-improvement but do it for yourself, not for others.

I want to grow. I want to be better. You grow. We all grow. We’re made to grow. You either evolve or you disappear.

If you wish to be good, first believe that you are bad.

Whoever educates himself and improves his own morals & character is superior to the man who tries to teach & train others.

The man of least capacity is the one who shows himself incapable of self-correction.

Each of us must work for his own improvement, and at the same time share a general responsibility for all humanity.

You cannot hope to build a better world without improving the individuals.
