GETTING 'RIGHT-SIZED' AS WE FIND OUR CENTER -
"Where before we
went from one extreme
to another, either feeling
better than everyone else or
feeling worthless, we now
find the middle ground
where true self-worth
can flourish." (It
Works, How &
Why, p.
74)
THE TRUTH ABOUT AMBITION -
"True ambi-
tion is not what
we thought it was."...
the permanent and legi-
timate satisfactions of right
living for which no amount
of pomp and circumstance,
no heap of material pos-
sessions, could pos-
sibly be substitu-
tes." (12 & 12,
p. 52)
"Focusing your
life solely on mak-
ing a buck shows a
certain poverty of am-
bition. It asks too little
of yourself. Because it's
only when you hitch your
wagon to something
larger than yourself
that you realize
your true po-
tential."
- Barack Obama (1961 - ) U.S. President
