25 Thoughts for the New Year
By Frank Sonnenberg
1. If you don’t pass your values onto your kids, someone else will.
2. You’d think we’d learn something from watching a hamster run around on its wheel.
3. Practice doesn’t make perfect if you’re doing it wrong.
4. Paradise is not a place; it’s a state of mind.
5. Fun shouldn’t be confused with happiness.
6. A homeless person wasn’t at one time.
7. If work isn’t fun, you’re not playing on the right team.
