The Paradoxical Commandments

People are illogical, unreasonable, and self-centered.
Love them anyway.

If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives.
Do good anyway.

If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies.
Succeed anyway.

The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway.

Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable.
Be honest and frank anyway.

The biggest men and women with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest men and women with the smallest minds.
Think big anyway.

People favor underdogs but follow only top dogs.
Fight for a few underdogs anyway.

What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight.
Build anyway.

People really need help but may attack you if you do help them.
Help people anyway.

Give the world the best you have and you'll get kicked in the teeth.
Give the world the best you have anyway.”
Kent M. Keith, The Silent Revolution: Dynamic Leadership in the Student Council

Thomas Sowell
“Abstract moral decisions are much easier to make on paper or in a classroom in later centuries than in the midst of the dilemmas actually faced by those living in very different circumstances, including serious dangers.”
Thomas Sowell, Black Rednecks & White Liberals

“I’ll bet (a pretty penny)… Bet #1: Five of ten CEOs see training as an expense rather than an investment. Bet #2: Five of ten CEOs see training as defense rather than offense. Bet #3: Five of ten CEOs see training as a necessary evil rather than a strategic opportunity. I’ll bet (many, many a pretty penny)… Bet #4: Eight of ten CEOs, in a forty-five-minute tour d’horizon of their business, would NOT mention training.”
Tom Peters, The Excellence Dividend: Meeting the Tech Tide with Work that Wows and Jobs that Last

“Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way. —Viktor Frankl,”
Tom Peters, The Excellence Dividend: Meeting the Tech Tide with Work that Wows and Jobs that Last

Ellis Peters
“God does indeed forbid,” said Radulfus drily, “that we should make more of our virtues or our failings than is due. More than your due you shall not have of, neither praise nor blame. For”
Ellis Peters, The Rose Rent
