"Appreciation can make a day, even change a life. Your willingness to put it into words is all that is necessary."

“45 years of hard labor, and you didn’t even commit a crime!”
"45 years of hard labor, and you didn't even commit a crime!"
Great headline, eh?
If you don't capture your prospect's imagination and attention with a great first sentence or headline ... you don't have a prospect. 
Always think hard about what your first sentence will be. Your career depends on it.
And now for some examples:
* "What would happen if you could quit your job?"
* "Put off wrinkles for another 10 years."
* "Get a monthly bonus check and a full-time maid."
* "How to lose two pounds a week and still eat all the ice cream you want."
Remember, first sentences are used by your competition. Everyone is vying for your prospect's money.

The Incalculable Benefit of Friends
The Incalculable Benefit of Friends
In 1907, SUCCESS founder Orison Swett Marden wrote an article titled "I Had a Friend." These quotes from Marden's timeless message express a few of the benefits and the necessity of true friends.
Friends are good for business.
"Most of us would have been very much poorer financially, but for the hosts of friends who have sent us customers and clients and business, who have always turned our way everything they could."
Friends help us grow.
"Emerson says: 'Our chief want in life is somebody who shall make us do what we can. This is the service of a friend. With him we are easily great.' "
Relationships require work.
"Friendship must be cultivated. It cannot be bought; it is priceless. If you abandon your friends for a quarter of a century or more while you are buried in your pursuit of wealth, you cannot expect to come back and find them where you left them."
To have friends, be a friend.
"If you would have friends, you must cultivate the qualities which you admire in others…. There is nothing like magnanimity and real charity, kindness, and a spirit of helpfulness, for attracting others. Your interest in people must be a real one, or you will not draw them to you."

This is totally applicable in all our lives.
