Stop worrying and start living.

One of the worst features about worrying is that it destroys our ability to concentrate. When we worry, our minds jump here and there and everywhere, and we lose all power of decision. However, when we force ourselves to face the worst and accept it mentally, we then eliminate all those vague imaginings and put ourselves in a position in which we are able to concentrate on our problem.

If you want to be a good conversationalist, be a good listener. To be interesting, be interested.

Fear is the result of a lack of confidence. A lack of confidence is the result of not knowing what you can do. A lack of knowing what you can do is caused by a lack of experience. A lack of experience is caused by a lack of doing something new.

Don't be afraid of enemies who attack you. Be afraid of the friends who flatter you.

Pay less attention to what men say. Just watch what they do.
