i-TFTD #85

#85-1. A great pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do.
-Walter Gagehot

#85-2. When you hire people who are smarter than you, you prove you are smarter than they are.
-R H Grant

#85-3. The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.

-Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Seek out nurturers, avoid and ignore the naysayers. Trying ten things boldly and succeeding in two is what successful and happy people always do.

Mediocrity breeds mediocrity. Those unsure of themselves tend to feel comfortable when surrounded by lesser individuals.

It is easy to show good character in pleasant and favourable circumstances but adversity brings out the real character.
