Because we can.
It really is up to us. Which is great, because we’re capable of changing everything if we choose.
All we can do is all we can do, but maybe, all we can do is enough. (Seth’s Blog, Seth Godin, 11.8.16)
”Never neglect the little things. Never skimp on that extra effort, that additional few minutes, that soft word of praise or thanks, that delivery of the very best that you can do. It does not matter what others think, it is of prime importance, however, what you think about you. You can never do your best, which should always be your trademark, if you are cutting corners and shirking responsibilities. You are special. Act it. Never neglect the little things.” (Og Mandino)
“Be an encourager. The world has plenty of critics already.” (Dave Willis)
“There are five important things for living a successful and fulfilling life: never stop dreaming, never stop believing, never give up, never stop trying, and never stop learning.” (Roy Bennett)
“Every act of kindness gets the nod, opens the heart, dampens the fear, turns the page, ups the ante, tips the point, heightens the joy, changes the world, rows the boat, adds to the love, and if you’ve been rather extraordinary lately, turns Thursdays into Fridays.
See? (Signed) The Universe” (Notes from The Universe, Mike Dooley)
