More quotes by Michael Josephson
One key to success is demanding more than adequacy, never settling for good enough and always doing a little bit more.
Michael Josephson
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

Michael Josephson
In life, we all get scored on every day. The wonderful thing is, if we do our best with courage and tenacity, we might be outscored but we can never be beaten.
Michael Josephson
When it comes to building character, wealth, good looks, athletic ability and even a high IQ are more likely to be impediments than advantages.
Michael Josephson
Don't confuse fun with fulfillment, or pleasure with happiness.
Michael Josephson
Expressed gratitude encourages further giving ingratitude drains vitality out of the spirit of generosity.
Michael Josephson
What you allow you encourage.
Michael Josephson
Character is ethical and moral strength. People of good character have the moral awareness and strength to know the good, love the good and do the good.
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
It is better to be unsuccessful pursuing a significant goal that being successful attaining an insignificant one.
