Most of us, swimming against tides of trouble the world knows nothing about, need only a bit of praise or encouragement and we'll make the goal. Say 'Thank you' whenever you think of it. Say 'Nice job' to that workman who put extra effort into his task. Say 'Atta boy' to the fellow who is struggling through in the face of odds. You'll get a whale of a lot of joy out of life that way. And people will love you.
More Quotes from Jerome P. Fleishman:
Always there will be, along the sidelines of life, inferior souls who throw mud at those whose attainments they do not quite understand. The man who really accomplishes doesn't pay attention to such detractors. If he did, he'd be on their level. He keeps an eye singled on the higher goaland the mud never touches him.Jerome P. Fleishman
It takes courage to livecourage and strength and hope and humor. And courage and strength and hope and humor have to be bought and paid for with pain and work and prayers and tears.
