To the barefoot man, happiness is a pair of shoes. To the man with old shoes, it's a pair of new shoes. To the man with new shoes, it's stylish shoes. And of course, the fellow with no feet would be happy to be barefoot. Measure your life by what you have not by what you don't.
Michael JosephsonIf we keep treating our most important values as meaningless relics, that's exactly what they'll become.
Michael JosephsonThere are two sure ways to fail: never get started and quit before you succeed. Many companies promote the language of risk-taking and innovation but are so concerned with short term profit goals that their culture discourages innovation (trying new things) and abandons promising projects too soon. It shouldn't require exceptional moral courage to try new things and stick with them.
Michael JosephsonDiscipline yourself to start each day identifying something to be grateful about. The world opens to those who approach it with a grateful heart.
