Determination and Perseverance
This is the lesson: never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never - in nothing, great or small, large or petty -never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. ~Winston Churchill
A Customer is the most important visitor on our premises.
He is not dependent on us. We are dependent on him.
He is not an interruption on our work. He is the purpose of it.
He is not an outsider on our business. He is a part of it.
We are not doing him a favor by serving him. He is doing us a favor by giving us an opportunity to do so.
~Mahatma Gandhi
Our Father which art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come.
Thy will be done in earth,as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,as we forgive those
who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil:
For thine is the kingdom,
and the power, and the glory,
forever and ever.
Amen.
The Serenity Prayer by Reinhold Niebuhr
God, give us grace to accept with serenity
the things that cannot be changed,
courage to change the things
which should be changed,
and the wisdom to distinguish
the one from the other.
Living one day at a time,
Enjoying one moment at a time,
Accepting hardship as a pathway to peace,
Taking, as Jesus did,
This sinful world as it is,
Not as I would have it,
Trusting that You will make all things right,
If I surrender to Your will,
So that I may be reasonably happy in this life,
And supremely happy with You forever in the next.
Amen.
