“7 Effective Ways to Make Others Feel Important”

“Don't let the expectations and opinions of other people affect your decisions. It's your life, not theirs. Do what matters most to you; do what makes you feel alive and happy. Don't let the expectations and ideas of others limit who you are. If you let others tell you who you are, you are living their reality — not yours. There is more to life than pleasing people. There is much more to life than following others' prescribed path. There is so much more to life than what you experience right now. You need to decide who you are for yourself. Become a whole being. Adventure.”

“Consistency is the true foundation of trust. Either keep your promises or do not make them.”

“If you care about someone enough, you’ll always be there for them no matter what.”

“Sometimes all a person wants is an empathetic ear; all he or she needs is to talk it out. Just offering a listening ear and an understanding heart for his or her suffering can be a big comfort.”

“How many dead lives and fading memories were buried in and beneath the names of the places in this country. Under the recorded names were other names, just as "Macon Dead," recorded for all time in some dusty file, hid from view the real names of people, places, and things. Names that had meaning. No wonder Pilate put hers in her ear. When you know your name, you should hang on to it, for unless it is noted down and remembered, it will die when you do.”

“Keep your head in the clouds and your hands on the keyboard.”

“Your life is now a train moving swiftly down the tracks you are laying, but most of the time, you are moving too fast and barely putting down tracks in front of you. The reality that must be faced is that you will never arrive at your desired destination if you don’t set your long-term goals, plan your required outcomes, and define the station for your train to reach. I call this setting your lighthouse, the guiding light you need in your life to connect all the elements I’ve discussed and set long-term goals you can spend every day chasing after and moving the needle toward”

“There is no more profitable investment than investing in yourself. It is the best investment you can make; you can never go wrong with it. It is the true way to improve yourself to be the best version of you and lets you be able to best serve those around you.”
