Christian Montealvo EVERYTHING YOU CREATE OR ACQUIRE BEGINS IN THE FORM OF DESIRE. If you want to be successful, you must embrace that purpose with a burning desire. Cultivate it and feed your desires with thoughts of yourself enjoying whatever it is you seek. Build up enough pressure to carry yourself over hills. If your desire doesn’t... burn hotly enough, you’ll find yourself stalled and rolling backwards.
Christian Montealvo IF YOU APPRECIATE THE KINDNESS SHOWN YOU BY OTHERS, SAY IT WITH ACTIONS AS WELL AS WORDS. The people who enjoy the greatest financial and personal success in life are those who build lasting relationships-with business associates, friends, co-workers, and others. Build your network of personal and professional friends by taking the initiative and being a friend.
Christian Montealvo FAITH IS A COMBINATION OF THOUGHTS AND ACTIONS. When you apply your faith in yourself, your faith in your fellow man, and your faith in God, the result is a positive course of action that when persistently followed will almost always lead to success. You cannot fail.
Christian Montealvo THE WORLD PINS NO MEDALS ON YOU BECAUSE OF WHAT YOU KNOW, BUT IT MAY CROWN YOU WITH GLORY AND RICHES FOR WHAT YOU DO. Knowledge is an important component of success. But knowledge alone is not power; it becomes powerful only when it is applied through positive action. Successful people gather the appropriate facts, rel...ate them to their knowledge, develop an implementation plan, and then get into action.
Christian Montealvo IT’S NOT THE EPITAPH ON YOUR TOMBSTONE BUT THE RECORD OF YOUR DEEDS THAT MAY PERPETUATE YOUR NAME AFTER DEATH. Good deeds live on in the minds of others. When you do a kindness for someone else, you set in motion a force for good that will remain long after you’re gone.
Christian Montealvo IF YOU THINK YOU CAN BUY YOUR WAY INTO HEAVEN WITH MONEY ALONE, YOU MAY REGRET THAT YOU DIDN’T CONVERT IT INTO GOOD DEEDS INSTEAD. Your wealth may be little more than the cause for disagreements among your heirs, while your good deeds will be remembered long after you are gone. As you accumulate wealth, devote a portio...n of your money and your time to causes that benefit those less fortunate than you.
Christian Montealvo WASTE NO WORDS ON A MAN WHO DISLIKES YOU. ACTIONS WILL IMPRESS HIM MORE. Consistent actions over a sustained period of time, however, will usually persuade even the most devout skeptic. If you constantly demonstrate that you are a generous, kind, and caring person, it will be very hard for even your enemies to dislike ...you. In any case, you will become a better person for having made the effort.
Christian Montealvo THE SAFEST AND BEST WAY TO PUNISH ONE WHO HAS DONE YOU AN INJUSTICE IS TO DO HIM OR HER A KIND DEED IN RETURN. People will always respond in kind, even in greater measure than that which is delivered to them. It may take time to make this work, but if you treat those who dislike you with unfailing kindness, they will e...ventually succumb to your influence and "retaliate" in kind.
Christian Montealvo IF YOU REALLY ARE SMARTER THAN OTHERS, SHOW THEM WITH YOUR ACTIONS. A wise person knows that when he shows his intelligence with the actions he takes, others learn a far more valuable and lasting lesson. If you see someone who could benefit from your advice, you can gently lead him to a more appropriate conclusion by a...sking open-ended, nonjudgmental questions. Let others find the flaws in their logical reasoning.
Christian Montealvo "The greatest girfts are gifts of your time and yourself. A kind word or small courtesy will be remembered and appreciated."
Christian Montealvo WHEN YOU HAVE TALKED YOURSELF INTO WHAT YOU WANT, STOP TALKING AND BEGIN SAYING IT WITH YOUR ACTIONS. Persuading yourself that you can do something is a strong beginning. The longer you delay, the harder it will be to begin. Just getting into action-even if you do have to make adjustments later-will help focus your min...d and channel your energies in the direction of your objective.
Christian Montealvo THE ONLY SAFE WAY TO BOAST IS BY CONSTRUCTIVE ACTIONS. It has been said that it’s not boasting if you can really do it. This may be true, but a far more persuasive argument is made when you do it first and talk about it later. Good things that are said about you always carry more weight when they are said by someone other than yourself.
Christian Montealvo MEDALS AND TITLES WILL NOT COUNT WHEN YOU GET TO HEAVEN, BUT YOU MAY BE LOOKED OVER CAREFULLY FOR THE SORT OF DEEDS YOU HAVE DONE. Ilona Tobin defines success as "giving and receiving love, having physical & mental health, enough wealth to provide you with options, and the time to enjoy them all." Live your life so tha...t when it is over you can take pride in the knowledge that you have made.
Christian Montealvo COUNT THAT DAY LOST WHOSE DESCENDING SUN FINDS YOU WITH NO GOOD DEEDS DONE. When you do a good deed for someone else, you become a better person. The positive effect that your good deed has upon you will endure long after it is forgotten by the recipient. The greatest gifts are gifts of your time and yourself. A kind ...word or small courtesy will be remembered and appreciated.
