If employees feel you don't trust them to do their jobs correctly and well, they'll be reluctant to do much without your approval. On the other hand, when they feel trusted, that you believe they'll do the right things well, they'll naturally want to do things well and be deserving of your trust.

No matter how bad things are, they could always be worse. Start finding gratitude for what might have happened, but didn't.

Belief fuels passion, and passion rarely fails.

It's not the things we get but the hearts we touch that will determine our success in life.

I highly recommend setting aside pockets of time during each day for solitude. You might have only five or ten minutes, but be alone and uninterrupted. And then sometime each week devote an extended time - at least one hour - to reconnect with your soul. How and when you do it is a very personal thing, but plan it because solitude doesn't happen on its own. Make it a priority in your life.

By the choices we make, by the attitudes we exhibit, we are influencing lives every day in positive or negative ways.

If I am happy inside, then I live in paradise no matter where my residence is.
