Ladies, never underestimate the value of thanking any man for being a "true gentleman," when he opens a door for you. At the very least, it will evoke either his thanks or a smile, and it cost you no loss.

Ignorance is a deadly parasite; the pursuit of enlightenment is the only cure.

Gratitude unexpressed holds little value

Always find a reason to thank someone… And be a reason for someone’s THANKS.

Never do business with friends, family, or church folks, lest you live to regret it.

For harmony and peaceful success in business: Never make a friend of an employee or an employee of a friend. That's not to say, "don't be kind, but never cross the line of fraternization." In doing so your authority begins to crumble and cannot be regained.
