THE FIRST RULE OF HUMAN RELATIONS…
AND HOW TO HANDLE REJECTIONS

“I've learned that
people will forget
what you said,
people will forget
what you did,
but people will never forget
how you made them feel.”

- Maya Angelou, Writer

“Save your rejections
so that later when you are famous
you can show them to people
and laugh.”

- Meg Cabot, Writer

AND NOW W. CLEMENT STONE & GOETHE

“There is very little difference in people,
but that little difference
makes a big difference.

The little difference
is attitude.

The big difference
is whether
it is positive or negative.”

“Treat people as if they were
what they ought to be
and you help them to become
what they are capable
of being.”

THE BEST PIECE EVER WRITTEN ABOUT ATTITUDE

The most well known and, arguably, the best piece ever written about ATTITUDE comes from American religious leader and author Charles Swindoll . . .

The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life.

Attitude, to me, is more than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do.

It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill.
It will make or break a company, a church, a home.

The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day.

We cannot change our past . . . we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable.

The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude.
I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it.
And so it is with you, we are in charge or our attitudes!

YOU ARE A GENIUS!

Did you see the movie Rain Man where Dustin Hoffman plays the role of a savant?

Savants are people who, in the sea of emotional and intellectual disabilities, have an island of genius.

In Rain Man, the savant has incredible ability with numbers.
Other savants have artistic, musical, and mnemonic talents.

And so do you!

You also have islands of genius inside you.
You might not have discovered them yet, but they're there!

THE GIFT

You have been given a gift – believe it!

You have been given a gift – discover it!

You have been given a gift – develop it!

You have been given a gift – cherish it!

You have been given a gift – use it!

You have been given a gift – give it away!

“The purpose of life
is to discover your gifts.

The meaning of life
comes from giving your gifts away.”

- Dr. David Viscott, Psychiatrist
