“Innovators have to be open. They have to be able to imagine things that others cannot and be willing to challenge their own preconceptions. They also need to be conscientious. An innovator who has brilliant ideas but lacks the discipline and persistence to carry them out is merely a dreamer ... But crucially, innovators need to be disagreeable ... They are people willing to take social risks-to do things that others might disapprove of.” PeopleNeedsIdeasMightAbleSocialChallengesCreativityImagineRiskDesignWillingDisciplineBrilliantPersistenceDreamerInnovatorsBrilliant IdeasDisagreeablePreconceptions Author:Malcolm Gladwell
“There are many deaf people who couldn't imagine living in a marriage without someone who doesn't speak their language. For me, I believe that hearing or deaf is fine as long as both parties are willing to communicate in each other's language. But if there's no communication, then the marriage, I believe, will be difficult if not doomed.” PeopleIfsBelieveLongSpeakLanguageI BelieveDifficultPartyImagineWillingCommunicationFineCommunicateHearingDoomedDeafDeafnessNo Communication Author:Marlee Matlin

“People of the world, the time for decision is short. It is measured in a few years. The choice is ours as to whether or not we will pay the price of peace. If we are not willing to pay it, all that we hold dear will be consumed in the flame of war. The darkness in our world today is due to the disintegration of things which are contrary to God's laws. Let us never say hopelessly this is the darkness before a storm; rather let us say with faith this is the darkness before the dawn of the golden age of peace, which we cannot now even imagine. For this, let us hope and work and pray.” PeopleIfsWorldYearsWarAgeTodayLawChoicesDecisionPayDarknessImagineWillingPrayingDearStormDuesContraryGoldenDawnFlamesOur WorldConsumedWorld TodayPay The PriceGolden AgeDisintegrationDarkness Before The Dawn Book:Peace Pilgrim: Her Life and Work in Her Own Words Source: Peace Pilgrim: Her Life and Work in Her Own Words
“Every person, young and old, has had his own personal experience with falling. Falling is what we mortals do. But as long as we are willing to rise up again and continue on the path toward the spiritual goals God has given us, we can learn something from failure and become better and happier as a result. My dear friends, no matter how many times you have slipped or fallen, rise up! Your destiny is a glorious one! Stand tall and walk in the light of the restored gospel of Jesus Christ! You are stronger than you realize. You are more capable than you can imagine. You can do it now!” PersonsLongMatterLightSpiritualYoungFallJesusGivenGoalChristCan DoRealizingWalksResultsDestinyPathImagineWillingCapableJesus ChristStrongerDearMortalsFallenGloriousTallYou Can Do ItOur DestinyYour DestinyPersonal ExperiencesDear FriendYoung And Old Author:Dieter F.
