Mother Teresa Quote on People

"People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered;Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives, be kind anyway. If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies, succeed anyway. If you are honest and frank, people may cheat on you. Be honest and frank anyway. What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight; build anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; be happy anyway. The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; do good anyway. Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; give the world the best you've got anyway. You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God; it was never between you and them anyway."
-- Mother Teresa

7 Step Secret to Success

STEP #1: See your destination in your mind. “When you don’t know where you’re going, any road will get you there.”–White Rabbit

STEP #2: Start Walking.“The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” –Lao Tzu (604 BC - 531 BC)

STEP #3: Think Ahead As You Walk.“It’s like driving a car at night. You can see only as far as your headlights, but you can make the whole trip that way.” –E.L. Doctorow

STEP #4: Don’t Quit Walking.“Don’t wait. Where do you expect to get by waiting? Doing is what teaches you. Doing is what leads to inspiration. Doing is what generates ideas. Nothing else, and nothing less.” –Daniel Quinn

STEP #5: Make No Deadlines.“Patience is the best remedy for every trouble.” –Titus Maccius Plautus (254 BC - 184 BC)“I am extraordinarily patient, provided I get my own way in the end.” –Margaret Thatcher, April 4, 1989

STEP #6: Look back at the progress you made each day.“God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning – the sixth day.” –Genesis 1:31

STEP #7: If evening finds you at the same place you were this morning, take a step before you lay down. “The magic isn’t in the size of your actions, but in the relentlessness of them. It is better to burn the candle at both ends, and in the middle, too, than to put it away in the closet and let the mice eat it.” –Henry Van Dyke
