Because as I fail, I learn, and then adjust my course to make sure my path is always forward. Like the process of annealing steel, I’ve been through the fire and pounded into shape. The shape of a sword with polished edges and a razor sharp blade that will cut you in half if you are not equally hardened.

That's possible, but since a charity will probably spend the money better than government will, isn't it good that the code encourages people to give? Steve Forbes argues that if taxes were flat and simple, Americans would give more. "Americans don't need to be bribed to give. ... In the 1980s, when the top rate got cut from 70 down to 28 percent ... charitable giving went up. When people have more, they give more."

Always on the road: Witnessing rays of hope in Detroit

http://www.osk.de/blog/always-on-the-road-witnessing-rays-of-hope-in-detroit/

Don't complain. We all have challenges. Complaining for complaining's sake is never helpful. Challenges are a part of life. Step in and step up. Strength means not running from things. Ride into them and own them. It's a quality that will get you further than you may have ever imagined.

http://www.askmen.com/top_10/dating/traits-of-a-real-man_1.html

People who don't know you are always going to act based on the only information they have, and most of these situations that are based on social interaction (dating, your career, your personal relationships) will suffer if you're subconsciously saying: "Don't mind me, I don't matter too much" from the outset. You don't have to dominate everyone around you like you're part of some wolf pack, and indeed that would probably hurt more than help, but you do need to display that you know your worth. Otherwise, people are going to assume — without even realizing why — that you have none.

http://www.askmen.com/dating/curtsmith_300/389b_why-status-matters.html

It's not always pleasant to admit that some aspects of your behavior deserve a change, but that's how personal improvement works. It takes an initial investment, perhaps learning how to assert yourself during introductions or to assume a more forceful posture, before you notice that people suddenly treat you with more respect and pay attention when you speak. These things won't revolutionize your life overnight, but they will, almost immediately, open your eyes to the ways you present yourself to people.

http://www.askmen.com/dating/curtsmith_300/389b_why-status-matters.html

There will be a day when you realize that the people you thought were always judging you were too caught up in their own lives to care, so don’t worry about them.

http://www.askmen.com/money/successful/take-action-for-success.html

...if you've overwhelmingly failed at everything and still project true confidence, others will be even more drawn to you because you're a real enigma.
