Michael Josephson
Image
Gratitude is not a payment for a kindness but another form of gift.
Michael Josephson
Image
One key to success is demanding more than adequacy, never settling for good enough and always doing a little bit more.
Michael Josephson
Image
Good intentions are simply not enough. Our character is defined and our lives are determined not by what we want, say or think, but by what we do.
Michael Josephson
Image
What will matter is not what you learned, but what you taught.
Michael Josephson
Image
Whether we want them or not, the New Year will bring new challenges whether we seize them or not, the New year will bring new opportunities.

Michael Josephson
Image
Physical courage to a person of honour is easier and less risky than acts that could subject him to embarrassment or humiliation or a diminished career or reputation. These things he must live with. To die for honor is an easier thought to bear.
Michael Josephson

Gratitude is most treasured when it is unexpected. When we expect, even demand gratitude, we treat it simply as payment due for some service we rendered and we squeeze any good feeling out of it.
Michael Josephson
Image
A certain formula for an unhappy life is pursue someone else's definition of success. Until you define your own goals and purposes your life is not your own and there can be no sense of fulfillment no matter how much you achieve.
Michael Josephson
Image
There's a hole in the moral ozone and it's getting bigger.
Michael Josephson
Image
If you want to be happy, learn to be alone without being lonely. Learn that being alone does not mean being unhappy. The world is full of plenty of interesting and enjoyable things to do and people who can enrich your life.
Michael Josephson
Image
Never do anything for another with the expectation of gratitude. The expectation itself turns the gift into an exchange and suggests a debt is owed you.
Michael Josephson
Image
Success comes in cans. Failures comes in can'ts.
Michael Josephson
Image
To the barefoot man, happiness is a pair of shoes. To the man with old shoes, it's a pair of new shoes. To the man with new shoes, it's stylish shoes. And of course, the fellow with no feet would be happy to be barefoot. Measure your life by what you have not by what you don't.
Michael Josephson
Image
For many of us gratitude to others comes with a sense of debt that can never be fully paid and therefore the things we are thankful for are never really ours.
Michael Josephson
Image
The opposite of success is not failure. Unsuccessful efforts are not failures unless they so discourage you that you abandon further efforts to achieve your goal. Even then, the venture or effort may be a failure but you are not. Failure is an event not a character trait.
Michael Josephson
Image
The key to success is effort. The bigger the goal, the greater the effort.
