“We all admire the courageous person and quite often consider the individual who lacks courage, a coward. However, that is not how Earl Nightingale saw it. He said the opposite of courage was not cowardness, it was conformity. The next time you are encouraged to fall into line, to be a sport and everything in you says no - be courageous and go your own way. There is no compensation in conformity.” WayPersonsSaidFallNextIndividualSportsLinesSawsOppositesAdmireCourageousCowardConformityNext TimeCompensationBe CourageousNightingales Author:Bob Proctor

“Granted, we may try to help our own family members because they share our DNA. Or help someone else in expectation that they will help us later. But when you look at what we admire as the most generous manifestations of altruism, they are not based on kin selection or reciprocity. An extreme example might be Oskar Schindler risking his life to save more than a thousand Jews from the gas chambers. That's the opposite of saving his genes.” TryingLooksMayHelpingMightShareExampleThousandMembersExpectationsOppositesJewExtremesAdmireSavingGrantedManifestationGenerousGasGenesAltruismDnaSelectionChamberFamily MembersReciprocityGas ChambersSchindler Author:Richard Dawkins
