* Associate with successful people. From this collection of experts, select a mentor to guide you along.
* Share yourself with others. Volunteer your time and your talents. Join civic and charitable organizations.
* Develop a sense of humor. Learn to laugh at life; don't take it too seriously. Begin by laughing at yourself and your mistakes.
* Exercise your creativity. Use your God-given imagination to see problems from a different point of view. They probably won't seem so big, after all.
* Exercise your body. Exercise keeps
body tone, healthy, and vitalized. Not only will you be keeping yourself healthy, but you will be shedding
extra pounds without realizing it.
* Balance your life. Take comparable amounts of time for fun and relaxation as you do for work and home.
* Change
things you cannot accept. Accept
things you cannot change. Be a doer, not a complainer.
Remember: When you maximize your potential, everyone wins. When you don't, we all lose.
