Success can be dangerous; it can breed arrogance. Sometimes it’s better to fail. Failure fosters humility, and humility will win you more points with people than arrogance.

A pot of food that is stirred often will cook evenly and well. In the same manner, a life that is stirred frequently is more likely to be balanced and successful.

Have you ever dreamed a great dream or had an inspiring idea, but then went back to your daily routine and lost sight of it? The next time inspiration knocks, invite it in.

Getting things out in the open will nearly always bring people together. It may not solve the immediate problem, but it will foster mutual respect and better understanding that will lead to future solutions and successes.

Almost without exception, the one who presents things in a positive, considerate way will have the greater success.

Success is a wonderful thing, but never underestimate the value of failure. Failure teaches men many more things than success ever can.
