Napoleon Hill

Napoleon Hill the author of “Think and Grow Rich”is also know
for poetry and quotes.
He has inspired generations.

“I bargained with life for a penny
and life would pay no more,
however, I begged at evening
when I counted my scanty store;

For life is a just employer
he gives you what you ask
but, once you have set the wages
why, you must bear the task;

I worked for a menial’s hire
only to learn dismayed
that any wage I had asked of life,
life would have willingly paid.”


If you cannot do great things, do small things in great ways.

Procrastination is the bad habit of putting of until the day after tomorrow what should have been done the day before yesterday.

Happiness is found in doing, not merely possessing.

Cherish your visions and your dreams as they are the children of your soul, the blue prints of your ultimate achievements.

We begin to see, therefore, the importance of selecting our environment with the greatest of care, because environment is mental feeding ground out of which the food that goes into our mind is extracted.

There is one quality which one must possess to win, and that is definiteness of purpose, the knowledge of what one wants, and a burning desire to possess it.

The world has the habit of making room for the man whose actions show that he knows where he is going.

A goal is a dream with a deadline.

Dignity

Simplicity & Dignity by Zig Ziglar

A parent or teacher who treats a child with dignity builds the self-esteem of the child and automatically increases the child's performance, which generally improves the child's conduct. An employer who treats employees with respect and dignity builds loyalty and increased productivity.

You treat another person, regardless of age, with dignity when you courteously listen to him or her and respond in a thoughtful manner. You treat others with dignity when you show them respect, regardless of their occupation, sex, race, creed or color. And when you treat others with respect and dignity, your own self-respect and sense of dignity improve.

Simplicity and dignity make a powerful combination. When you strive for dignity and use simplicity as a yardstick, you've just elevated your possibilities for accomplishment.
