The Real Basic Power Of

We Do Not Hear The Term Compassionate Applied To Business Executives Or Entrepreneurs, Certainly Not When They Are Engaged In Their Normal Work. Yet In Terms Of Results In The Measurable Form Of Jobs Created, Lives Enriched, Communities Built, Living Standards Raised, And Poverty Healed, A Handful Of Capitalists Has Done Infinitely More For Mankind Than All The Self-serving Politicians, Academics, Social Workers, And Religionists Who March Under The Banner Of Compassion.

Respect Starts With Ourselves.

Productive Achievement Is A Consequence And An Expression Of Health And Self-esteem, Not Its Cause.

Living Consciously Reflects The Conviction That Sight Is Preferable To Blindness; That Respecting The Facts Of Reality Is More Satisfying Than Denying Them; That Evasion Does Not Make The Unreal Real Or The Real Unreal; That It Is Better To Correct Your Mistakes That To Pretend They Do Not Exist; And That The More Conscious You Are Of Facts Bearing On Your Life And Goals, The More Wisely And Effectively You Can Act.

The Greatest Barrier To Achievement And Success Is Not Lack Of Talent Or Ability But Rather The Feeling That Achievement And Success, Above A Certain Level, Are Outside Our Self-concept-our Image Of Who We Are And What Is Appropriate To Us.
