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.

Encouragement makes a fault easy to correct, and a challenge easy to take on.

Life truly is a boomerang. What you give, you get.

A good deed, "said the prophet Mohammed, "is one that brings a smile of joy to the face of another." Why will doing a good deed every day produce such astounding efforts on the doer? Because trying to please others will cause us to stop thinking of ourselves: the very thing that produces worry and fear and melancholia.

Tell the audience what you're going to say, say it; then tell them what you've said.

So if you aspire to be a good conversationali st, be an attentive listener.

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