If half a century of living has taught me anything at all, it has taught me that nothing can bring you peace but yourself.

Be honest, Look for areas where you can admit error and say so. Apologize for your mistakes. It will help disarm your opponents and reduce defensiveness.

Develop success from failures. Discouragement and failure are two of the surest stepping stones to success. The successful man will profit from his mistakes and try again in a different way. When you're afraid, keep your mind on what you have to do...if you have been thoroughly prepared, you will not be afraid. We all have possibilities we don't know about. We can do things we don't even dream we can do.

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

I wasn't interested in making a lot of money, but I was interested in making a lot of living.

Begin with praise and honest appreciation.

One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living.
