If something doesn't turn out as planned, you will ask yourself, 'How did I create that? What was I thinking? What were my beliefs? What did I say or not say? What did I do or not do to create that result? How did I get the other person to act that way? What do I need to do differently next time to get the result I want?'

Negative feelings are like weeds. If you don't fully extract them (i.e. pull out the roots), they will come back.

No one has to bear the burden of tough times all by themselves.

A recent management study revealed that 46% of employees leaving a company do so because they feel underappreciated; 61% said their bosses don't place much importance on them as people, and 88% said they do not receive acknowledgement for the work they do.

What if you, too, were to greet every interaction in your life with the question 'What's the potential opportunity that this is?'

People who don't have goals work for people who do.

Remember, you and you alone are responsible for maintaining your energy. Give up blaming, complaining and excuse making, and keep taking action in the direction of your goals - however mundane or lofty they may be.
