Power Point: No pessimist ever discovered the secret of the stars, or sailed to an uncharted land, or opened a new doorway for the human spirit.
ó Helen Keller
Power Thought: Pessimism will destroy the morale of any organization. The most talented worker, regardless of experience or ability, will be no better than her attitude. Strong morale and attitude are essential to productivity and is the key to future success. Don’t allow pessimism to hold your organization back.ó Doug Dickerson
Power Surge: The quickest way to correct the other fellow’s attitude is to correct your own. Try it. It works.
