We Develop Our Character Muscles By Overcoming

If We Want To Make Relatively Minor Changes In Our Lives, We Can Perhaps Appropriately Focus On Our Attitudes And Behaviors. But If We Want To Make Significant, Quantum Change, We Need To Work On Our Basic Paradigms.

The Person Who Is Truly Effective Has The Humility And Reverence To Recognize His Own Perceptual Limitations And To Appreciate The Rich Resources Available Through Interaction With The Hearts And Minds Of Other Human Beings.

Empathic Listening Is So Powerful Because It Gives You Accurate Data To Work With. Instead Of Projecting Your Own Autobiography And Assuming Thoughts, Feelings, Motives And Interpretation, You're Dealing With The Reality Inside Another Person's Head And Heart. You're Listening To Understand. You're Focused On Receiving The Deep Communication Of Another Human Soul.

The Key To The Many Is Often The One; It Is How You Regard And Talk About The One In That One's Absence Or Presence That Communicates To The Many How You Would Regard And Talk About Them In Their Presence Or Absence.

The Challenge Is Not To Manage Time, But To Manage Ourselves.
