Practice is the price of mastery. Whatever you practice over and over again becomes a new habit of thought and performance.

Your ability to negotiate, communicate, influence, and persuade others to do things is absolutely indispensable to everything you accomplish in life. The most effective men and women in every area are those who can quite competently organize the cooperation and assistance of other people toward the accomplishment of important goals and objectives.

The amount you laugh in your relationships with others is the true measure of the health of your personality.

Avoid negative people at all costs. They are the greatest destroyers of self-confidence and self-esteem.

A clear vision, backed by definite plans, gives you a tremendous feeling of confidence and personal power.

Your greatest resource is your time.

To be truly happy, you need a clear sense of direction. You need a commitment to something bigger and more important than yourself. You need to feel that your life stands for something, that you are somehow making a valuable contribution to your world.
