I've never yet met a person who didn't want to be appreciated.

Criticize the act, not the person.

While clothes may not make the woman, they certainly have a strong effect on her self-confidence, which, I believe, does make the woman.

There are two things people want more than sex and money - recognition and praise.

Whenever I meet someone, I try to imagine her wearing an invisible sign that says: MAKE ME FEEL IMPORTANT. I respond to this sign immediately, and it works wonders.

Dare to grow into your dreams and claim this as your motto: Let it be me.

If I'm talking to someone in a crowded room, I try to make this person feel as though we're the only ones present. I shut out everything else. I look directly at the person. Even if a gorilla were to walk into the room, I probably wouldn't notice it.
