    based on 3 ratings
     | 9,066 views

    If you want to truly help people recover from failure, lead with compassion, not condemnation; lead by example, not by examination; and lead with wisdom; not words. To put it succinctly, see with the eyes of a doctor, not a judge.

I touch my leg and it hurts. I touch my stomach and it hurts. I touch my chest and it hurts. You have to help me, Doc, ...read more

    based on 34 ratings
     | 4,214 views

    If we are not mature enough for criticism we are too immature for praise. Adverse criticism from a wise man is more to be desired than the enthusiastic approval of the unwise.

If it is ignorant smile and be bigger than the critic. If it is justified, learn from it." "Adversity ...read more
