“Learning to earn a living is only half the job. The other half is to make life worthwhile and meaningful.”

Education must assume full responsibility to enter the moral and spiritual lives of pupils.

Modern education develops the intellect and imparts skills, but does not promote qualities in any way.

Not living for food, but living for the sake of an ideal, that is the goal of education.

The life ahead can only be glorious if you learn to live in total harmony with the Lord.

All action results from thought, so it is thoughts that matter.

Do not be misled by what you see around you, or be influenced by what you see. You live in a world which is a playground of illusion, full of false paths, false values and false ideals. But you are not part of that world.

Education today is a process of filling the mind with the contents of books, emptying the contents in the examination hall and returning empty-headed.

What the world needs today is neither a new order, a new education, a new system, a new society nor a new religion. The remedy lies in a mind and a heart filled with holiness.

Education must promote peace, security and happiness.

Everybody does not have to like you. That is not their job. Liking you is not anyone’s purpose in life except yours.

I refuse to indulge in small talk. And compliments, if at all, I save for after the job is done.

Why compare yourself with others? No one in the entire world can do a better job of being you than you.

Every time I am on the field I am a threat to make a big play. I am going to do my job every day and can be relied upon.

Take your work seriously, but don’t take yourself seriously

Connect the dots between individual roles and the goals of the organization. When people see that connection, they get a lot of energy out of work. They feel the importance, dignity, and meaning in their job.

Failure is an inside job. So is success. If you want to achieve you have to win the war in your thinking first.
