But they did me wrong.....

The safest and best way to punish one who has done you an injustice is to do him or her a kind deed in return.

People will always respond in kind, even in greater measure than that which is delivered to them. This commonplace need for retaliation can be replaced with a response designed to convert an enemy into a friend. If you get rid of the millstone of pride, you can respond to an injustice with a kind deed. It may take time to make this work, but if you treat those who dislike you with unfailing kindness, they will eventually succumb to your influence and “retaliate” in kind. As Napoleon Hill said, “The hottest coals of fire ever heaped upon the head of one who has wronged you are the coals of human kindness.”


Napoleon Hill

You can tell by the company people choose what sort of character they have

As the saying goes, “Birds of a feather flock together.” We usually choose friends and business associates who like the same things we do, people who share the same values. If you choose happy, positive, productive companions, the odds are that you are or will soon become happy, positive, and productive yourself. Unfortunately, the reverse is also true. Unhappy, negative, destructive people are sure to drag you down with them. Choose to spend most of your time with persons who have PMA — a Positive Mental Attitude. If your job requires you to spend time with negative people, limit that time to the best of your ability and above all don’t let them discourage you with their negativism. Instead, display your own PMA.

The Simplicity of Happiness...

Sometimes happiness is just being grateful.  Today I am grateful for the sunshine, my health, friends, my wonderful family, success and happiness.

INVESTORS BUSINESS DAILY-10 SECRETS TO SUCCESS

1.      HOW YOU THINK IS EVERYTHING: Always be positive.  Think success, not failure.  Beware of a negative environment. 

2.      DECIDE UPON YOUR TRUE DREAMS AND GOALS: Write down your specific goals and develop a plan to reach them.

3.      TAKE ACTION:  Goals are nothing without action.  Don’t be afraid to get started.  Just do it.

4.      NEVER STOP LEARNING:  Go back to school or read books.  Get training and acquire skills.

5.      BE PERSISTENT AND WORK HARD:  Success is a marathon, not a sprint.  Never give up. 

6.      LEARN TO ANALYZE DETAILS:  Get all the facts, all the input.  Learn from your mistakes.

7.      FOCUS ON YOUR TIME AND MONEY:  Don’t let other people or things distract you.

8.      DON’T BE AFRAID TO INNOVATE; BE DIFFERENT:  Following the herd is a sure way to mediocrity.

9.      DEAL AND COMMUNICATE WITH PEOPLE EFFECTIVELY:  No person is an island.  Learn to understand and motivate others.

10.  BE HONEST AND DEPENDABLE; TAKE RESPONSIBILITY:  Otherwise, Numbers 1-9 won’t matter.
