Expressed gratitude encourages further giving; ingratitude drains vitality out of the spirit of generosity.

The best way to show true gratitude for all our blessings is to be genuinely happy.

Leadership is not a matter of authority, it is a matter of influence. A true leader teaches others to understand more, motivates them to be more and inspires them to become more.

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

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.

At home, be grateful. At work, be appreciative. Gratitude is a gift we give ourselves. Appreciation is a gift we give to others.

Values are good things only if they are good values.
