The world seems to belong to those who reach out and grab it with both hands. It belongs to those who do something rather than just wish and hope and plan and pray, and intend to do something someday, when everything is just right.

When you remain angry with another person, you give away your emotional control to that person each time you think of him or here. You allow him or her to control your emotions at long distance. By not forgiving, you allow that person to run your emotional life, exactly as if he or she were right there with you and the situation was occurring all over again.

The greatest gift that you can give to others is the gift of unconditional love and acceptance.

Rewrite your major goals every day, in the present tense, exactly as if they already existed

Leaders set high standards. Refuse to tolerate mediocrity or poor performance.

The mark of the superior thinker is his or her ability to accurately predict the consequences of doing or not doing something.
