Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.

Peace
Peace is the enjoyment of life, activity is the expression of life. A balance between the activity of the West and the calmness of the East is needed.
Poise
For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others, for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness, and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.
Harmony
Affirm divine calmness and peace, and send out only thoughts of love and goodwill if you want to live in peace and harmony. Never get angry, for anger poisons your system.
Honesty
We tell lies when we are afraid... afraid of what we don't know, afraid of what others will think, afraid of what will be found out about us. But every time we tell a lie, the thing that we fear grows stronger. So, be Honest!
Charity
What we have done for ourselves alone dies with us, what we have done for others and the world remains and is immortal. Charity is a virtue of the heart, and not of the hands.
Freedom
Freedom has its life in the hearts, the actions, the spirit of men and so it must be daily earned and refreshed - else like a flower cut from its life-giving roots, it will wither and die.
Wisdom
We learn wisdom from failure much more than from success. We often discover what will do, by finding out what will not do, and probably he who never made a mistake never made a discovery.
Kindness
Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profundity. Kindness in giving creates love.
Inspiration
Life reflects your own thoughts back to you. Change your thoughts, Change your life!
Intelligence
Intelligence is not to make no mistakes, but quickly to see how to make them good.
Memory
Memory is the mother of all wisdom. We cannot change our memories, but we can change their meaning and the power they have over us.
Grace
Learn to limit yourself, to content yourself with some definite work, dare to be what you are and learn to resign with a good grace all that you are not, and to believe in your own individuality.
Confidence
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us. It's not who you are that holds you back, it's who you think you're not.
Abundance
Whatever we are waiting for - peace of mind, contentment, grace, the inner awareness of simple abundance - it will surely come to us, but only when we are ready to receive it with an open and grateful heart. Life is a field of unlimited possibilities.
Health
True enjoyment comes from activity of the mind and exercise of the body, the two are ever united. Health is a state of complete harmony of the body, mind and spirit. An illness of the mind is an illness of the body, and vice versa.
Strength
Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength. Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising up every time we fail.
Energy
The energy of the mind is the essence of life.
Vitality
Vitality shows in not only the ability to persist but the ability to start over.
Power
The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing, is nothing, and becomes nothing. He may avoid suffering and sorrow, but he simply cannot learn and feel and change and grow and love and live.
Serenity
The serenity of mind, gentleness, silence, self-restraint, and the purity of mind are called the austerity of thought. Cheerfulness keeps up a kind of daylight in the mind, filling it with a steady and perpetual serenity
Love
As you continue to send out love, the energy returns to you in a regenerating spiral... As love accumulates, it keeps your system in balance and harmony. Love is the tool, and more love is the end product. Life without love is like a tree without blossom and fruit.
Creativity
Creativity comes from trust. Trust your instincts. Imagination is the beginning of creation. You imagine what you desire, you will what you imagine and at last you create what you will.
Life
Everyday, try and find moments where you can find yourself. These drops of small precious moments can build ocean of Joy for lifetime. Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
Success
Success is not so much what we have as it is what we are. Truth, self control, asceticism, generosity, non-injury, constancy in virtue — these are the means of success.
Happiness
Happiness is not a matter of good fortune or worldly possessions. It's a mental attitude. It comes from appreciating what we have, instead of being miserable about what we don't have. It's so simple—yet so hard for the human mind to comprehend.
Resourcefulness
Resourcefulness means to be able to act effectively or imaginatively, especially in difficult situations. Remember you will not always win. Some days, the most resourceful individual will taste defeat. But there is, in this case, always tomorrow - after you have done your best to achieve success today.
Persistence
As you reflect upon your life, how many times have you fallen down? Don't be discouraged. If one dream should fall and break into a thousand pieces, never be afraid to pick one of those pieces up and begin again.
Purpose
We have one life and one chance to make it count for something . . . We are free to choose what that something is, and the something we've chosen is our faith. Now, our faith goes beyond theology and religion and requires considerable work and effort. Our faith demands that we do whatever we can, wherever we are, whenever we can, for as long as we can with whatever we have to try to make a difference.
Never forget that the purpose for which a man lives is the improvement of the man himself, so that he may go out of this world having, in his great sphere or his small one, done some little good for his fellow creatures and labored a little to diminish the sin and sorrow that are in the world.
Achievement
Trust yourself. Create the kind of self that you will be happy to live with all your life. Make the most of yourself by fanning the tiny, inner sparks of possibility into flames of achievement. Everyone is trying to accomplish something big, not realizing that life is made up of little things.
Laugh
Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing. Time spent laughing is time spent with the gods. If you don't start out the day with a smile, it's not too late to start practicing for tomorrow.

Remember: Of all the things you wear, your expression is the most important.
