What is your philosophy of life?

A basketball coach was applying for a head coaching job in Edison. He was asked, what his philosophy was. As he paused, the Athletic Director asked, "How can you follow your philosophy if you do not have one?"

What are you living for each day. Morals are those things we have, that sometimes need to be defined.

Philosophy of the Dalai Lama:
1. Take into account that great love and great achievements involve great risk.
2. When you lose don't lose the lesson.
3. Follow the 3R's: Respect for self, respect for others, responsibility for all your actions.
4. Remember that not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck.
5. Learn the rules so you know how to break them properly.

"If you lead through fear you will get little respect. If you lead through respect you have little to fear."

An Interview with God

I dreamed I had an interview with God.

I asked, "As a parent, what are some of life's lessons you want your children to learn?"

God answered...

"To learn that it is not good to compare themselves to others."

"To learn they cannot make anyone love them. All they can do is let themselves be loved."

Quote of the month: "While those hesitate because they feel inferior, others are busy making mistakes and becoming superior."
