Mackay's Moral: If you are persistent, you will get it. If you are consistent, you will keep it.
Life is series of opportunities. The often neglected fact of life is that opportunities multiply as you take advantage of them.
Positive thinking is more than just a tagline. It changes the way we behave. And I firmly believe that when I am positive, it not only makes me better, but it also makes those around me better.
None of us got to where we are alone. Whether the assistance we received was obvious or subtle, acknowledging someone's help is a big part of understanding the importance of saying thank you.
