Review # 1 was written on 2017-02-02 00:00:00 Matthew Mahalchick EXPERIENCE AND ENTHUSIASM ARE TWO FINE BUSINESS ATTRIBUTES SELDOM FOUND IN ONE INDIVIDUAL. We always weaken things we exaggerate. The fine points that are uncovered in our work as a result of close study, diligent care, constant application and always trying to improve our methods represent the best and most valuable knowledge we get in business = skill. The man who has accomplished all that he thinks worth while, has begun to die. Good character is that quality which makes one dependable whether being watched or not. You can easily judge the character of others by how they treat those who can do nothing for them or to them. A man's reputation if the opinion people have of him; his character is what he really is. I have learnt to seek my happiness by limiting my desires, rather than attempting to satisfy them. It is not the man who has little, but he who desire more that is poor. Few men have the natural strength to honour a friends success without envy. Happiness, whether in business or private life, leaves very little trace in history. The wise person possesses humility. He knows that his small island of knowledge is surrounded by a vast sea of unknown. I am not young enough to know everything. Life is really simple but men insist on making it complicated. Moderation is the key of lasting enjoyment.
