Sunday Post #2

This is my second Sunday Post and the quotes that I want to reflect upon embody self-confidence and gratitude. Before I get to the quotes, I want to mention that this week at work I was fortunate to pilot the 7 Habits Maximizer class. It was an eight hour program divided into two half day sessions. The maximizer was a follow up to The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People course that I had taken a while back. When you have the chance to attend a 7 Habits class, or are simply interested in reading Stephen Covey's book titled The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, I encourage you to go for it.

On Confidence:

"You have to believe in yourself, that's the secret. Even when I was in the orphanage, when I was roaming the street trying to find enough to eat, even then I thought of myself as the greatest actor in the world. I had to feel the exuberance that comes from utter confidence in yourself. Without it, you go down in defeat."
-- Charlie Chaplin

On Gratitude:

"Give thanks for a little and you will find a lot"
-- A Hausa saying (Nigeria)
