Align yourself with people that you can learn from, people who want more out of life, people who are stretching and searching and seeking some higher ground in life.

You cannot be wimpy out there on the dream-seeking trail. Dare to break through barriers, to find your own path.

Know your gifts and share them.

Goals are not dreamy, pie-in-the-sky ideals. They have every day practical applications and they should be practical.

Downsizing trends and the changing global market require people to reinvent themselves and think like entrepreneurs.

Stand up for what you believe in, because you can fall for anything.

You must think of failure and defeat as the spring boards to new achievements, and to the next level of accomplishment.
