The following are ten personal favorites. From ancient Greece comes this reminder that introspection, keeping a journal, paying attention to the heart of things, comes first. Before we can know the world around us, and make wise choices, we must first come to grips with who we are and what we value. In life there is no substitute for integrity.
Integrity is about going beyond the truth to full and complete honesty, openness and fairness.
Without love, caring relationships, and compassion, life is indeed a dry and shallow thing. The good life is about living large, about expressing the joy and love of life. Opportunities multiply as they are seized - SunTzu Success depends on the courage to act, and courage in turn requires a level of faith that every opportunity acted upon will lead to more and better ways to serve, learn, grow and prosper. Do, or do not. Life requires action, boldness and decisiveness.
