A smart person knows when to be quiet.

But an intelligent person is able to talk himself out of any situation.

Skilled managers know that extrinsic motivators are necessary, but that it's the intrinsic ones that really move a business forward.

Most people say happiness can't be measurable. That's false. It can be measured by the simple formula:

Wanting what you have / Having what you want

This indicates the more you appreciate what you do have, instead of trying to get ahold of things you believe will make you happy, the happier you will become.

Having what you want only results in short-term happiness while wanting what you have could result in long-term happiness. It's true!

Of course I do believe some "having what you want" is necessary in order to "wanting what you have."

Watch your thoughts, they become words. Words become actions. Actions become habits. Habits become character. Character becomes destiny.

A long habit of not thinking a thing wrong gives it a superficial appearance of being right.
