This is where you will win the battle - in the playhouse of your mind.

Worry is one of the most destructive scourges of mankind.

Take the trouble to stop and think of the other person's feelings, his viewpoints, his desires and needs. Think more of what the other fellow wants, and how he must feel.

You make mistakes. Mistakes don't make you.

Functionally, a man is somewhat like a bicycle. A bicycle maintains its poise and equilibrium only so long as it's moving forward towards something.

Do your worrying before you place your bet, not after the wheel stops turning.

A healthy strong ego, with plenty of self-esteem, does not feel itself threatened by every innocent remark.
