A man asks me, “How come all this stuff goes wrong for me?” I say, “I don’t know. Beats me! The most I’ve been able to figure out is that those kinds of things always happen to people like you.” I’ll bet he’s one of the ones who don’t take advantage of good ideas. If he continues on that path, he’ll probably never find the right combination. That honor will always fall on the ones who do… like you.

Each person entering our world brings either a contribution or destruction. Trying to be “always nice” is to invite certain disaster. Those with poisonous attitudes, strange opinions, and caustic conversations love to look for someone nice who will listen to them. They love to dump their verbal garbage into the mental factory of anyone willing to listen. A major challenge in life is for each person to learn the art of standing guard at the doorway of their mind. Carefully examine the credentials and authority of those seeking to enter within that place where your attitudes are formed.
We must all suffer from one of two pains: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret. The difference is discipline weighs ounces while regret weighs tons.
