ONE-LINERS

Throughout my life, I have learned a number of “one-liners.”  Many of them have been quite helpful:

“The clearer you are about yourself, the less power others have over you.”

“A dysfunctional system is like flypaper:  There’s no way to engage without getting stuck.”

“The best revenge is to live well.”

“The first rule of relationships:  Stay out of the middle.”

“When you’re going through Hell, don’t camp there.”

“Sow tomorrow’s seeds today.”

“A journey is taken one step at a time.”
