A powerful quote from Napoleon Hill on the power of doing good deeds for others, that when you do a good deed it is often
remembered even after it has been done. As Napoleon Hill states when you do a good deed for someone else you become
a better person which is wonderful and helpful.

Yet remember when the deed is done from a negative rather than a positive emotion then it cancels the deed out. A good
deed can be something of love, doing somethng special for someone else. However when its filled with hate or anger then
unfortuntalely the deed is often forgotten.

Count that day lost whose descending sun finds you with no good deeds done. | Napoleon Hill Foundation.

Wow what a powerful quote from Melody Beattie on Gratitude, what are you grateful for? A few of the things that am grateful for are
Having the most loving woman I know in own life, being able to do what I am able to do, having what health that do have. So what are
you grateful for?

"Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend."

What a powerful quote on motivation from Lee Iacocca. As Lee say’s people have to inspire just one person and get that person to
then inspire one other person to do something that is what motivation is about.

"Motivation is everything. You can do the work of two people, but you can't be two people. Instead, you have to inspire the next guy down the line and get him to inspire his people."

-- Lee Iacocca, Auto Executive

A powerful article from Brian Tracy on Expectations from Jim Rohn’s Newsletter, that what you expect to happen will happen.
Say you expect someone to comehome safe and sound then they will, however you expect you aren’t going to see them again
the universe will make it so.

The Law of Expectations
by Brian Tracy

I've found that whatever you expect, with confidence, becomes your own self-fulfilling prophecy.

When you confidently expect good things to happen, good things usually happen to you. If you expect something negative to happen, you are usually not disappointed.

Your expectations have an inordinate effect on the people around you as well. What you expect from people and situations determines your attitude toward them more than any other factor, and people reflect your attitude right back at you, like a mirror, whether positive or negative.

Dr. Robert Rosenthal of Harvard conducted dozens of controlled experiments over the years to test the power of the expectations of teachers on student performance. In his landmark book, “Pygmalion in the Classroom,” he tells of case after case where teachers were told that a student, or sometimes a whole class, was extremely bright and was predicted to make a quantum leap in academic performance in the coming year.

Even though the students were chosen from the school population at large, as long as the teacher believed that the student or students were exceptional, and the teacher expected the student to do well, the students performed vastly better than other students in the same or similar classes, and vastly better than could have been predicted by previous grades or behavior.

In your own personal life, your expectations of your staff, your boss, your customers and even of your own future tend to come true. Your expectations exert a powerful influence on people and events, for good or for ill, so be careful!

Wow what a greate philosophy from Jim Rohn as the ants are viewed. That they do all they can, they never quit, they just keep on going, also thinking this will
not last long and we will be out of here. What a very powerful example of being willing to look at the ants and do what they do. As appeared in Jim Rohn’s
newsletter.

The Ant Philosophy
by Jim Rohn

Over the years I've been teaching kids about a simple but powerful concept—the ant philosophy. I think everybody should study ants. They have an amazing four-part philosophy, and here is the first part: ants never quit. That's a good philosophy. If they're headed somewhere and you try to stop them, they'll look for another way. They'll climb over, they'll climb under, they'll climb around. They keep looking for another way. What a neat philosophy, to never quit looking for a way to get where you're supposed to go.

Second, ants think winter all summer. That's an important perspective. You can't be so naive as to think summer will last forever. So ants gather their winter food in the middle of summer.

An ancient story says, “Don't build your house on the sand in the summer.” Why do we need that advice? Because it is important to think ahead. In the summer, you've got to think storm. You've got to think rocks as you enjoy the sand and sun.

The third part of the ant philosophy is that ants think summer all winter. That is so important. During the winter, ants remind themselves, “This won't last long; we'll soon be out of here.” And the first warm day, the ants are out. If it turns cold again, they'll dive back down, but then they come out the first warm day. They can't wait to get out.

And here's the last part of the ant philosophy. How much will an ant gather during the summer to prepare for the winter? All he possibly can. What an incredible philosophy, the “all–you–possibly–can” philosophy.

Wow, what a great philosophy to have—the ant philosophy. Never give up, look ahead, stay positive and do all you can.
