I substituted for Ben on the 19th of May. We talked about Power
Ethics, Culture, and Change. In our conversation about public service
and doing the right things to further our organizations, someone shared
this quote with us.
A Simple Path
People are unreasonable, illogical and self-centered;
LOVE THEM ANYWAY.
If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives;
DO GOOD ANYWAY.
If you are successful you win false friends and true enemies;
SUCCEED ANYWAY.
The good you do will be forgotten tomorrow;
DO GOOD ANYWAY.
What you spent years building may be destroyed overnight;
BUILD ANYWAY.
People really need help but attack you if you help them;
HELP THEM ANYWAY.
Give the world the best you have and you’ll get kicked in the teeth.
GIVE THE WORLD THE BEST YOU’VE GOT ANYWAY.
-Mother Teresa
