Pearls of Wisdom |
|
East
The thought manifests as the word; The word manifests as
the deed; The deed develops into
habit; And habit hardens into
character. So watch the thought and its ways with care, And let it
spring from love born out of concern for all beings.
–
Buddha
High-minded actions, ideal qualities, and sacred
thoughts are basic foundations of character.
– Sri Sathya Sai Baba
Only the wisest and the stupidest of men never
change.
– Confucius
Greater
is He that is in you, than he that is in the world.
– Jesus Christ
West
Refrain from doing ill; for one all
powerful reason, lest our children should copy our misdeeds; we are
all to prone to imitate whatever is base and depraved.
– Juvenal
The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands
in moments of comfort, but were he stands at times of challenge and
controversy.
– Marin Luter King
Every man alone is sincere; at the
entrance of a second person hypocrisy begins.
– Ralph Waldo Emerson
Man is not the sum of what he has but the totality of
what he does not yet have, of what he might have.
– Jean-Paul Sartre

Your Character Ethic and
Personality Ethic
The elements of Personality Ethic, such as
communication
skills, influence strategies, and positive thinking, are essential for
success, but these are secondary, not primary traits.
"You can pick up
quick, easy techniques that may work in short-term situations. But secondary
traits alone have no permanent worth in long-term relationships. Eventually,
if there isn't deep integrity and fundamental character strength, the
challenges of life will cause true motives to surface and human
relationships failure will replace short-term success."1
Only basic goodness gives life to techniques. To achieve
great results, focus first on yourself
– your beliefs and values, your deepest motives and
perceptions – and then on your techniques.
There are two main paths of the Personality Ethic:
-
Human and public relations techniques (e.g.
communication skills; influence
strategies)
-
Positive Mental Attitude (PMA)
Jesus on Love
There is only one love that loves
unconditionally — the love of the Divine. You must love the Lord your God with all your
heart, all your soul, and all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest
commandment. A second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as
yourself.’ The entire law and all the demands of the prophets are based on
these two commandments...

Win-Win Mindset
Win-Win as a frame of mind which
constantly seeks mutual benefit in all human interactions.5
To grow a Win-Win mindset, you need to focus on
the development of three
character
traits:3
-
Integrity.
Integrity means treating everyone by the same set of principles.
Conforming reality to our words – keeping promises and fulfilling
expectations.
Being loyal to those who are not present.
-
Maturity. Maturity is the
balance between courage and consideration.
Expressing feelings and convictions with courage balanced with
consideration for the
feelings and convictions of another person requires maturity,
particularly if the issue is very important to both parties.
-
An Abundance Mentality. An abundance
mentality flows from a deep inner sense of personal worth and security.
It is a paradigm that states that this is a world of plenty and that
there is enough for everybody. It results in the sharing of prestige, of
recognition, of profits, of decision making. It opens possibilities,
options, alternatives and
creativity.
