See Greatness in Yourself~

I believe there is the potential for greatness in every single person in GoodHeartz. Not the kind of greatness that wins trophies or races, or that will help them make a million mesos when they're grown up, but an even more important kind. It's the kind of greatness that can change the world; the kind of greatness that gives something back; the kind of greatness that reaches out to other people when they need a helping hand; the kind of greatness that cares for senior citizens when they're lonely; the kind of greatness that takes the higher ground and offers an example for others to follow. That's the kind of greatness that can really make a difference. See it in yourself because it's there, and it's powerful.

Be Different!

If you're the same, the same as everyone else, then you're just a cog in the machine, a commodity, someone who sells her time by the hour, her work by the pound. Be different. Be remarkable. Offend people, stand out, challenge the rules. That's not what your teachers want, but it's exactly what the world needs.

~Seth Godin, Author

Quit!

When mistakes are made, they must be acknowledged, mourned, and analyzed. Change will follow. None of that Stick-to-it-tivity for me. There is a reason pencils have erasers, and computers have 'delete'. When it doesn't work, when you fail, think about it, worry over it, cry if you need to, but let it go. That would be family, friends, lovers, jobs, you name it... let it go.

Go for the future, go for the sun.. go for the laughter.. go for the chance to be as beautiful and
wonderful as you can be. Any by the way, be happy. Do life with vigor, with style. With happiness. Don't let anybody tell you 'No'. Life is about 'Yes.' Say Yes to yourself. Don't be afraid. All change is good.
