Become someone's hero.

It's not your job to get people to like you, it's your job to like people.

Never resist a generous impulse.

Fight fairly. Give generously. Laugh loudly. Love deeply.

Happiness is not based on possessions, power or prestige, but on relationships with people you love and respect.

Watch for big problems. They disguise big opportunities.

Grind it out. Hanging on just one second longer than your competition makes you the winner.

Be happy with what you have while working for what you want.

Ask someone you'd like to know to list five people they would most like to meet. It will tell you a lot about them.

Do your homework and know your facts, but remember it's passion that persuades.

Don't think you can relax yourself to happiness. Happiness comes as a result of doing.

When lending people money, be sure their character exceeds their collateral.

Win without boasting, lose without excuses - internalize your failures and externalize your victories.

Be tough minded but tenderhearted.

Be the first to say, "Hello".

Buy whatever kids are selling on card tables in their front yard.

Be kinder than necessary.

Every so often, let your spirit of adventure triumph over your good sense.

Never laugh at anyone's dreams.

Believe in love at first sight.

Every so often, push your luck.

Once a month, go to lunch with someone who knows more about your business than you do.

After you've work hard to get what you want, take the time to enjoy it.

Share your knowledge and you become immortal.

Everyone wears an invisible sign that reads "Notice me. Make me feel important."

Hire people more for their judgment than for their talents.

When there's a piano to be moved, don't reach for the stool.

Celebrate even small victories.

Plant more flowers than you pick

Judge your success by what you had to give up to get it.

Remember that winners do what losers don't want to do.

Learn to listen. Opportunity sometimes knocks very softly.

Strive for excellence, not perfection.

Take care of your reputation. It's your most valuable asset.

Give people a second chance, but not a third.

The shortest way to get anywhere is to have good company.

The best preparation for tomorrow is doing your best today.

Sometimes the heart sees what is invisible to the eye.

Live so that when your children think of fairness, caring, and integrity, they think of you.

Remember that the happiest people are not those getting more, but those giving more.

Life doesn't require that we be the best, only that we try our best.

Never give up on what you really want to do. The person with big dreams is more powerful than one with all the facts.

Good manners sometimes means simply putting up with other people's bad manners.

You must take action now that will move you towards your goals. Develop a sense of urgency in your life.

I never expect to lose. Even when I'm the underdog, I still prepare a victory speech.

Opportunity dances with those already on the dance floor.

Oh, the difference between nearly right and exactly right.

Believe in miracles but don't depend on them. When you hear kind word spoken about a friend, tell him so. Spoil your spouse, not your children. Never make fun of someone who speaks broken English. It means they know another language. To help your children turn out well, spend twice as much time with them and half as much money.

When you can’t change the direction of the wind — adjust your sails

Don't forget, a person's greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated.
