Do as you would have others do unto you
- A golden rule that I teach others. Comes from the Bible. Taught by Jesus.
Knowledge is responsibility
- Sometimes when you are told of something and you do not act on it and someone suffers, you are partly responsible. Learnt this from a boss I used to work with.
Relax. There will always be good people and bad people.
- This helps me overcome disappointments when dealing with people. It also prevents me from getting upset or frustrated with other people's actions. Not to say that I do not get angry or upset with bad behavior at all but at least it will not eat me up and give me unnecessary stress. Bad for the heart! : D
Tithe your time to God, and He will lengthen your days
- This one I learnt from fellow Christian colleague. I think she coined this one up but I found it very useful in making me pause or take time out (during my so very busy busy work schedule) to pray or just think about him or to go for my office fellowship meetings. Then somehow you feel so lifted from the stress of work and be able to be more up-spirit after that!

The heights by great men reached and kept were not attained in sudden flight,
but rather they, while their companions slept,
toiled upward in the night.
It helps me keep a long-term goal in perspective, kind of like "Rome wasn't built in a day"
