A Quote by Michael J. Silverstein

Looking back, if I had to live my life over, there are things I would do differently, but the one thing I would not change is my charitable giving. I'm particularly thankful for my father's advice to set goals so high that they can't possibly be achieved during a lifetime and to give help where help is needed most. That inspiration keeps me energized and eager to keep working hard every day on giving back and making the world a better place for generations to come.

Being obsessed by goals is bad for you. You should set goals, even ambitious goals, regularly. But focus on them only to the extent that they give you direction.

When you play teams that are good defensively and teams that have been there with experience, the object is to keep the goals against down.

Myron Scholes

The most important thing to keep in mind in being effective is focus.

Jared Polis
