The best way to knock the chip off your neighbor’s shoulder is to pat him on the back.

Sometimes, what a person needs is not a brilliant mind that speaks, but a patient heart that listens.

The kindest word in all the world is the unkind word, unsaid.

People have a way of becoming what you encourage them to be, not what you nag them to be.

Live in such a way that if someone spoke badly of you, no one would believe it.

Learn to accept rather than expect, and you’ll have far fewer disappointments.

The strongest people aren’t always the people who win, but the people who don’t give up when they lose.

It is the way we react to circumstances that determines our feelings.

I’ve learned that making a ‘living’ is not the same thing as making a ‘life.’

May we think of freedom, not as the right to do as we please, but as the opportunity to do what is right.

Beauty is about living your life, and being happy with yourself inside and out, and not worrying about what people think of you.

Don’t stress over past mistakes because there’s nothing you can do to change them. Focus on your present and create your future today.

Rejection is not fatal; it is merely someone’s opinion.

The struggle you’re in today is developing the strength you need for tomorrow. Don’t give up.

 

Be happy with what you have and are, be generous with both, and you won’t have to hunt for happiness.

You can’t control everything. Sometimes you just need to relax and have faith that things will work out. Let go a little and just let life happen.

If you believe it will work out, you’ll see opportunities. If you believe it won’t, you will see obstacles.

Be kind to unkind people. They need it the most.

 

Acceptance is not submission; it is acknowledgment of the facts of a situation, then deciding what you’re going to do about it.

If we do not feel grateful for what we already have, what makes us think we’d be happy with more?
