Live an active life among people who are doing worthwhile things, keep eyes and ears and mind and heart open to absorb truth, and then tell of the things you know, as if you know them. The world will listen, for the world loves nothing so much as real life.

Praise the slightest improvement and praise every improvement. Be hearty in your approbation and lavish in your praise.

Put a 'stop-loss' order on your worries. Decide just how much anxiety a thing may be worth- and refuse to give it any more.

Why talk about what we want? That is childish. Absurd. Of course, you are interested in what you want. You are eternally interested in it. But no one else is. The rest of us are just like you: we are interested in what we want.

Don't be afraid to give your best to what seemingly are small jobs.

Success is getting what you want. Happiness is wanting what you get.

Try honest to see things from the other person's point of view.
