In countries like Switzerland, every man within a certain age range is required to possess a gun and to know how to use it, and Switzerland has one of the lowest gun homicide rates in the world.”
Ben Carson

“Take the first step in faith, you don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.”

Criticism will plant fear or resentment in the human heart but it will not build love or affection.”
Napoleon Hill

Have them read and listen to positive books and tapes. Feed them with big ideas from great people. 3. Have them write out their dreams. Then, have them list their skills and talents. Do any match? Ask them what they would do if they had no fear of failure. 4. Go with them to interview a visionary leader. Ask that leader how they think about problems. How do they perceive opportunities? 5. Discuss current events each week. Ask them to identify one burden or problem”
John C. Maxwell

Nelson Mandela
