Thanksgiving is a time to reflect on the many things we have to be thankful for, not so we feel guilty about what we have that others don't, but to be genuinely grateful for our blessings.

An ounce of action is worth a ton of good intentions.

It is not enough that we express our gratitude, we must experience it. We truly honor the must think about our blessings, separately and cumulatively It is not enough to count our blessings and express our gratitude if we don't truly feel grateful.

Approach the New Year with resolve to find the opportunities hidden in each new day.

The key to a better life: Complain less, appreciate more. Whine less, laugh more. Talk less, listen more. Want less, give more. Hate less, love more. Scold less, praise more. Fear less, hope more.

There is no adversity that cannot be overcome by good character.

The surest way to escape anxiety and defeat despair is action. Do, don't dwell.
