Hand On Your Heart

"Put your hand on your heart

and think about people who have brought you love and joy.

You will feel incredible peace."

Loretta LaRoche

Do What You Have To Do

"Perhaps the most valuable result of all education is the ability to make yourself do the thing you have to do, when it ought to be done, whether you like it or not; it is the first lesson that ought to be learned; and however early a man's training begins, it is probably the last lesson that he learns thoroughly."

Thomas H. Huxley

Honourable Mistakes

"A life spent making mistakes is not only more honourable,

but more useful than a life spent doing nothing."

George Bernard Shaw

Deeply Loved

"Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength,

while loving someone deeply gives you courage"

Lao Tzu

Change the World

"Maybe you can't change the whole world,

but if you have love in your heart

you can make small differences every day,

which really does change the world,

one life at a time."

Kristina Koncz

Joy in Work

"The secret of joy in work is contained in one word-

excellence!

To know how to do something well is to enjoy it."


Pearl Buck

Look Through Each Other's Eyes

Henry David Thoreau

Gathered Together Like a Fist

"My passions were all gathered together like fingers that made a fist.

Drive is considered aggressive today;

I knew it then as purpose."

Bette Davis

Victim

"Don't become a victim of yourself.

Forget about the thief waiting in the alley;

what about the thief in your mind?"

Jim Rohn
