Think Big #5855
T alent: Our Creator has endowed all of us not just with the ability to sing, dance or throw a ball, but with intellectual talent. Start getting in touch with that part of you that is intellectual and develop that; and think of careers that will allow you to use that.
H onesty: If you lead a clean and honest life, you don't put skeletons in the closet. If you put skeletons in the closet, they definitely will come back just when you don't want to see them and ruin your life.
I nsight: It comes from people who have already gone where you're trying to go. Learn from their triumphs and their mistakes.
N ice: If you're nice to people, then once they get over the suspicion of why you're being nice, they will be nice to you.
K nowledge: It makes you into a more valuable person. The more knowledge you have, the more people need you. It's an interesting phenomenon, but when people need you, they pay you, so you'll be okay in life.
B ooks: They are the mechanism for obtaining knowledge, as opposed to television.
I n-Depth Learning: Learn for the sake of knowledge and understanding, rather than for the sake of impressing people or taking a test.
G od: Never get too big for Him.
From the book “Think Big” By Dr Den Carson

Customer Service #240
In dealing with the public avoid eating at your desk. You should eat lunch and snacks in private. It is unprofessional to eat and serve clients at the same time during business hours. Also, if you have eaten onions or any other food with strong odors use mints or brush your teeth before attending to clients. Strong food odors are offensive to the other people around you.

Work and Personal #5149
Want to keep your friends and be successful in business? Don't work for friends and don't have a personal relationship with a co worker. Separate your business from your home life, that way you'll spend quality time at each, family and work.
