For "i" To Become "we" And Yet

Whether Your Focus Is On Preserving And Strengthening Family Ties In A World Of Increasingly Unstable Relationships, Gaining Access To A Decent Job, Growing And Evolving As A Person, Or Guiding A Company Through The Stormy Seas Of A Fiercely Competitive Global Marketplace-whether Your Goals Are Material, Emotional, Or Spiritual-the Price Of Success Is The Same: Thinking, Learning. To Be Asleep At The Wheel-to Rely Only On The Known, Familiar, And Automatized-is To Invite Disaster.

You Are Not Likely To Bring Out The Best In People Or Nurture Their Creativity If Every Time You Hear About Their Problems You Instantly Offer A Solution Encourage People To Look For Their Own Solutions-and Project The Knowledge That They Are Capable Of Doing So.

Out Of Fear, Out Of The Desire For Approval, Out Of The Misguided Notions Of Duty, People Surrender Themselves-their Convictions And Their Aspirations-every Day. There Is Nothing Noble About It. It Takes Far More Courage To Fight For Your Values Than To Relinquish Them.

We Must Become What We Wish To Teach.

The First Love Affair You Must Consummate Is The Love Affair With Yourself. Only Then Are You Ready For A Romantic Relationship.
