Do The Right Thing

• The most important question to keep before ourselves at all times is this: Do we do the right thing? During this short period of time which we call our life, do our acts conform to the will of the force that sent us into the world? Do we do the right thing? (Leo Tolstoy, A Calendar of Wisdom, 3 January)

• Excellence requires order, the first law of prosperity. When you are committed to excellence you must think orderly, behave orderly, conduct yourself in an orderly manner and perform your tasks in order. (Iyanla Vanzant, Acts of Faith, 22 December)

• I've shut the door on yesterday and thrown the key away -- Tomorrow holds no fears for me, since I have found today. (Vivian Yeiser Laramore in Body, Mind, and Spirit, 31 December)
