Spread Light


There are two ways to spread light. To be the candle or the mirror that reflects it

What is success?


“Success means doing the best we can with what we have. Success is the doing, not the getting; in the trying, not the triumph. Success is a personal standard, reaching for the highest that is in us, becoming all that we can be.”

"Sucesso significa fazer o melhor que possível com o que temos. O sucesso é o fazer, não o obtendo; na tentativa, não o triunfo. Sucesso é um padrão pessoal, chegando para o mais alto que está em nós, tornando-se tudo o que podemos ser. "

Goals are tools


  
“Goals are simply tools to focus your energy in positive directions, these can be changed as your priorities change, new one added, and others dropped.”

"Metas são simplesmente ferramentas para concentrar sua energia em direções positivas, estes podem ser mudados, sua mudança de prioridades, novo adicionado, e outros caiu".

The Art of Happiness

 “The art of being happy lies in the power of extracting happiness from common things.”

"A arte de ser feliz situa-se no poder de extração de felicidade de coisas comuns".

Sun and joy

“The sun does not shine for a few trees and flowers, but for the wide world's joy.”

Judging a person

“Persons are judged to be great because of the positive qualities they possess, not because of the absence of faults”

Courage

Courage does not always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day that says “I will try again tomorrow"

Stand for something

 “If you don't stand for something you will fall for anything.”

The Little Difference

“There is little difference in people, but that little difference makes a big difference. The little difference is attitude. The big difference is whether it is positive or negative.”

Boss or Leader

Boss or Leader? - A BOSS creates fear. A LEADER creates confidence! BOSSism creates resentment. LEADERship breeds enthusiasm! A BOSS says "I". A LEADER says "We"! A BOSS fixes blame. A LEADER fixes mistakes! A BOSS knows how. A LEADER shows how! Bossism makes work drudgery. Leadership makes work interesting! A BOSS relies on authority. A LEADER relies on cooperation! A BOSS drives. A LEADER Leads!

What do you have?

"Instead of thinking about what you're missing, try thinking about what you have that everyone else is missing.”

Positive Possibilities

"You've done it before and you can do it now. See the positive possibilities. Redirect the substantial energy of your frustration and turn it into positive, effective, unstoppable determination.”

Gratitude

As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.

A Smile

A smile costs nothing, but gives much. It enriches those who receive,without making poorer those who give.
It takes but a moment, but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever.
None is so rich or mighty that he can get along without it. A smile creates happiness in the home,fosters good will in business, and is the countersign of friendship. It brings rest to the weary, cheer to the discouraged, sunshine to the sad, and it is nature’s best antidote for trouble. Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is of no value to anyone until it is given away. Some people are too tired to give you a smile.
Give them one of yours, as none needs a smile so much as he who has no more to give.

A dream

“A dream becomes a goal when action is taken toward its achievement.”

Initiative

"Without initiative, leaders are simply workers in leadership positions.”

Enthusiasm

     
“Enthusiasm is excitement with inspiration, motivation, and a pinch of creativity.”

Happy Thanksgiving

Let us remember that, as much has been given us, much will be expected from us, and that true homage comes from the heart as well as from the lips, and shows itself in deeds. (Theodore Roosevelt)

The Positive Thinker

     
“The positive thinker sees the invisible, feels the intangible, and achieves the impossible.”

Pessimist versus optimist

     
“A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.”

Good things will be yours

     
“Fear less, hope more; Eat less, chew more; Whine less, breathe more; Talk less, say more; Love more, and all good things will be yours”

The rules of the game

     
“You have to learn the rules of the game. And then you have to play better than anyone else.”

Make Them More Effective


Four workers can make 6 units in an eight-hour shift without a manager. If I hire you to manage them and they still make 6 units a day, what is the benefit to my business of having hired you? On the other hand, if they now make 8 units per day, you, the manager, have value.

The same analogy applies to service, or retail, or teaching, or any other kind of work. Can your group handle more customer calls with you than without? Sell higher value merchandise? Impart knowledge more effectively? etc. That is the value of management - making a group of individual more effective.
