by Suzanne Falter-Barns. What geniuses do is straightforward enough — they recognize their gifts, and then they fully and completely embrace their craft. These people have achieved success
because they surrendered fully and completely to their passion. Their first and
utmost priority in their life is their work, and they give themselves to it
without question.

 by Ric Giardina. If you don't get people to support you in changing, they will support you in being the same! Since we train the people around us to respond to us in particular ways based on how we are, it's really up to us to retrain them when we want or need to change how we are being. You will be much more successful at making core-level life changes if you enlist the support of the people around you — those whose puzzle pieces border on yours in the variety of arenas that make up your life. It is difficult to attempt this alone, and it would be foolish to try.

by Ric Giardina. I can, as it were, easily juggle many things at one time without having the juggling itself wear on me. It has only been in the last few decades that I have recognized this for the incredible gift that it is. Indeed, it was only after I began managing other people about mid-way through my career in corporate America that I began to notice that others — particularly those I supervised, since my managerial style was to get close to them and the totality of their lives — were having trouble keeping their lives in balance.

by Rosalyn Harwood. As I sit at the computer, reading my email, I am also blow drying my hair, typing with one hand. My back starts to ache from sitting in one position for too long. As I tune into my body, I realize that this is insane... That I am somehow pursuing goals instead of living in joy. That I have lost the juice, the joy, and the flow of events in my life...

 by Lynn A. Robinson. I'm a true fan of self-help books. I keep a stack of five or six of them by my bed and read them before going to sleep at night. Following is my distillation of some of these ideas, but with an intuitive spin on them |

 by Lenedra J. Carroll. An understanding of values is essential in business operation: not as a semantic discussion about the difference between a value and a principle or a quality, but rather as discussion about what we value. What do we value and how are those values operating in our families, our work, or our communities? |

 by J.R. Parrish. I can tell you that learning effective human-relations skills completely changed and dramatically improved my life. Since getting along with people is crucial, it's important to learn how to get along early in your life. Human-relations skills should be taught from kindergarten through college... The first key is to recognize the fact that every human being's greatest need, after food, clothing, and shelter, is the need to feel important. |

 by Jann Mitchell. The value and lasting impact of family is being rediscovered. John Bradshaw underscores the importance of family connection. He emphasizes acceptance and ?loving your own crooked family with your own crooked heart." Just as Mormons celebrate Mondays as Family at Home Night, we can rethink some of our commitments and create time for what?s truly important. |

by Jann Mitchell. Success can feel scary, almost like a shameful secret. Success carries a whole new set of fears: of being rejected by people, of having our parade rained upon, of having our success somehow invalidated or even ripped away from us overnight. Success can feel good and bad at the same time. |

Susan Smith Jones For many people, abundance and prosperity are tied to their level of self-esteem. You make a good living, pay your bills and save money, so you feel successful. I define success in a different light. Success can be measured only by the degree to which you have inner peace and if, no matter what the circumstance or situation, you can remain peaceful, calm, and happy.

by Peter & Helen Evans In many of our life's endeavors we say, "Oh well, I tried", and take our failure as "a lesson to be learned". Too often, we conclude that the lesson is, "I better not try that again". Perhaps the real lesson is that we didn't really try. Maybe we only made a halfhearted attempt and life gave us back exactly what we gave to it.
