In A World In Which

No One Is Coming To Save You.

It Is Painful To Face The Self We Know We Have Never Had The Integrity To Honor And Assert.

The Ultimate Test Of Our Integrity Is Not How We Deal With Those Whom We Agree But How We Deal With Those Who We Do Not Agree.

Whether Your Focus Is On Preserving And Strengthening Family Ties In A World Of Increasingly Unstable Relationships, Gaining Access To A Decent Job, Growing And Evolving As A Person, Or Guiding A Company Through The Stormy Seas Of A Fiercely Competitive Global Marketplace-whether Your Goals Are Material, Emotional, Or Spiritual-the Price Of Success Is The Same: Thinking, Learning. To Be Asleep At The Wheel-to Rely Only On The Known, Familiar, And Automatized-is To Invite Disaster.

If You Overcome Your Fear To Ask Someone For A Date, A Raise, Or Help With A Project, That Is An Act Of Self-assertiveness. You Are Moving Out Into Life Rather Than Contracting And Withdrawing.
