Don't be called out on strikes. Go down swinging.
When you have nothing important or interesting to say, don't let anyone persuade you to say it.
Never resist a generous impulse.
Never underestimate the power of words to heal and reconcile relationships.
Remember that just the moment you say, "I give up," someone else seeing the same situation is saying, "My, what a great opportunity."
Never underestimate your power to change yourself.
