The greatest pain in life is that God grants us limited abilities but unlimited desires. Without satisfying our desires, we suffer; once satisfied, we face boredom. We often wander between these two states until life ends.
When confronted about a mistake, people often follow a pattern: first they deny it, then they make excuses, then they blame others, then they remain silent, and only finally do they admit they were wrong.
One day you will forget the past, but the past will never forget you.
Sales is essentially the application of common sense. It only produces results when these proven principles are applied to positive individuals.
Opportunities in sales are fleeting; one must judge quickly and accurately, pay attention to detail to avoid missing chances, and strive to create opportunities.
A stalemate can be crucial—and life is no different.
There is no such thing as "greatest love" in this world; it is merely a fleeting feeling that changes with time and mood. If your so-called greatest love leaves you, wait patiently for time to wash away the pain and let your heart settle. Do not overly long for illusory beauty, nor exaggerate the sorrow of heartbreak.
Do not reveal everything about your past to others, and learn to respect those who do not like you.
Do not be too quick to draw conclusions when facing issues. Even with an answer, wait a moment; there might be a better way. Practice empathy; when in trouble, observe calmly—often, the crisis resolves itself, or even better, luck arrives.
We will eventually grow up, and in doing so, we lose our original innocence.
