Never expect people to treat you any better than you treat yourself.
Every day, people settle for less than they deserve. They are only partially living or at best living a partial life. Every human being has the potential for greatness.
Most of us are consumed with our own thoughts and desires and are not always thinking about what other people may want. This is not necessarily being egocentric; it is just being human.
People who come from dysfunctional families are not destined for a dysfunctional life.
Value people on their potential, not on their history.
Show interest in all people, not just those from whom you want something. Making people feel important and good about themselves is just the right thing to do.
It's not people who resent successful people; it's resentful people who resent successful people.
