BRING THE JOY!

“Pleasure in the job puts perfection in the work.” Aristotle

“Negative is normal. It is not successful, but it’s normal.” Jim Rohn

“When the negative thoughts come – and they will; they come to all of us – it’s not enough to just not dwell on it. You’ve got to replace it with a positive thought.” Joel Osteen

Negative is normal. Neglect is natural. They aren’t helpful, but they are natural. People don’t rubberneck when they see a beautiful sunrise; they rubberneck to see a horrific accident. Weeds don’t require nurturing; they only need neglect to grow.
