“First ask yourself: What is the worst that can happen? Then prepare to accept it. Then proceed to improve on the worst.”

Good leaders are scarce; so I’m following myself.

People do things for “their” reasons, not ours. So find their reasons.

The life of many a person could probably be changed if only someone would make him feel important.

Actions speak louder than words, and a smile says, ‘I like you. You make me happy. I am glad to see you.

The world is so full of people who are grabbing and self-seeking. So the rare individual who unselfishly tries to serve others has an enormous advantage. He has little competition.

If you want others to like you, if you want to develop real friendships, if you want to help others at the same time as you help yourself, keep this principle in mind: Become genuinely interested in other people.

People aren’t interested in you. They’re interested in themselves.

If you want to conquer fear, don’t sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.

If you are wrong, admit it quickly and emphatically.

The way to defeat fear: decide on a course of conduct and follow it. Keep so busy and work so hard that you forget about being afraid.

When we hate our enemies, we are giving them power over us: power over our sleep, our appetites, our blood pressure, our health, and our happiness.

Learning is an active process. We learn by doing.. Only knowledge that is used sticks in your mind.

If you must make a mistake, make a new one each time.

If you are not in the process of becoming the person you want to be, you are automatically engaged in becoming the person you don’t want to be.

The successful man will profit from his mistakes and try again in a different way.

Abilities wither under criticism; they blossom under encouragement.

I release all criticism. I only give out that which I wish to receive in return. My love and acceptance of others is mirrored to me in every moment.

If you don’t want responsibility, don’t sit in the big chair. To be successful, you must accept full responsibility

Thinkers do not accept the inevitable; they turn their efforts toward changing it.

A false conclusion once arrived at and widely accepted is not easily dislodged and the less it is understood the more tenaciously it is held.

Emotional turmoil can be a powerful catalyst to reconnect us with our divine nature. It propels us into a journey of self discovery and urges us to learn how to love and accept our entire being.

It is not necessary to accept the choices handed down to you by life as you know it.

The world mirrors yourself back to you. If you love, nourish, and appreciate yourself internally it will show up in your external life. If you want more love, give more love to yourself. If you want acceptance, accept yourself.

We are who we are, and when you accept people instead of trying to change them to fit your needs, your relationships can fully blossom.
