"If you must be deceitful, be sure you never try to deceive your best friend — yourself."

A better understanding of what you are about -- your goals, your dreams, and your aspirations -- leads you to a better understanding of those around you. It is critical, therefore, that you be honest with yourself at all times. The moment you begin to deceive yourself is the beginning of the decline in your character; it is the beginning of a process of rationalization that permits you to justify unacceptable behavior. Make sure you are a person whom you like, a person of sound character. If you don't like yourself, how can you expect others to like you? Step back and examine your behavior as logically as possible. Ask yourself, "Am I the kind of person I would like to be with?" Developing good character traits is like achieving any other objective. Determine where you wish to be and then develop a plan for getting there.

"For every failure, there’s an alternative course of action. You just have to find it. When you come to a roadblock, take a detour." Mary Kay Ash

"Some people resemble a cheap watch. They are not dependable."
http://tinyurl.com/4avl2uq

It would be unrealistic to expect an inexpensive, mass-produced watch to perform with the same degree of accuracy as a finely crafted Rolex. They are not made with the same quality of materials or with the same craftsmanship. Yet we somehow think that we do not need to give the same attention to our most important asset: ourselves. Don't leave something as important as your character to chance. Choose the character traits you admire, and work to develop them. Don't be discouraged when you stumble. Building character is a process that takes a lifetime to complete. Fortunately, like anything else, the more you work at character building, the better you become at it.

You can't control others’ acts, but you can control your reaction to their acts, and that is what counts most to you."

No one can make you feel any negative emotion -- fear, anger, or inferiority -- without your express permission. There will always be people who find perverse enjoyment in upsetting others, or who simply play upon your emotions so that they can use you for their own selfish purposes. Whether or not they are successful depends entirely upon you and how you react to their negative behaviors. When you are forced to deal with such people, recognize from the outset that they are trying to upset you, not because of something you may have done to them, but because of some problem they have with themselves. Tell yourself, "This isn't about me. I will not allow this person to upset me. I am in control of my emotions and my life."

“The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can't find them, make them.” George Bernard Shaw

Leaders aren’t born they are made. And they are made just like anything else, through hard work. And that’s the price we’ll have to pay to achieve that goal, or any goal. Vince Lombardi

To accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream; not only plan, but also believe. Anatole France

-Are you playing The Waiting Game? Many of us are: We believe that we'll truly be happiest only WHEN we find the right person. We will reach success WHEN we land the right job. We will get healthy WHEN we find inspiration. Wrong. Those who are waiting now will spend their entire lives waiting. It's here. Now. Today

"You are more apt to “rust” out your brain from disuse than you are to wear it out from use."

http://tinyurl.com/4b3znpx

Unlike a mechanical device that eventually wears out and must be replaced if it is used continually and consistently, the mind grows only stronger when it is active. The more you exercise and stretch your brain, the more proficient it becomes. Disuse, however, will have the same effect upon your mind as it will upon a machine. The most intricate, most powerful machine in the world and the greatest minds will rust away unless they are used. Unless you manage your schedule to permit time for study and learning, it is easy to yield to the temptation to spend your free time in thoughtless, mind-numbing, escapist pastimes. Relaxation is important, but so is gaining new knowledge. Make sure your daily schedule includes an allotment of time for both.
