Want to simplify your financial life? Check out these great quotes from Warren Buffet.

My favorite? "Never test the water with both feet."

"Civility does not...mean the outward gentleness of speech cultivated for the occasion, but an inborn gentleness and desire to do the opponent good."
-- Mahatma Gandi

Gratitude is the beginning of civility, of decency and goodness, of a recognition that we cannot afford to be arrogant."
-- Gordon B. Hinckley

"Aspire to decency. Practice civility toward one another. Admire and emulate ethical behavior wherever you find it. Apply a rigid standard of morality to your lives; and if, periodically, you fail as you surely will, adjust your lives, not the standards."
-- Ted Koppel

Kindness is as much about the future as it is the "now".

"Anyone who says customers are #1 has lost their mind. Employees are #1. Employees are the source of all value creation."
- Keith Cunningham (The Road Less Stupid).

Values versus Principles. Agreed upon principles make better decision-makers.

"The most important thing in the world is family and love."
- John Wooden

“Some of our most important choices concern family activities. There is no easy formula for that contest of priorities. However, I have never known of a man who looked back on his working life and said, “I just didn’t spend enough time with my job.”
- Dallin H. Oaks

Make 2020 Unforgettable...

If you wait until you are not scared to try new things, then you will never get to try them at all. You can never know what your are fully made of, until you start to do the things you fear most.

Happiness is not something that you can pursue. Happiness is something that ensues, when you make the most out of every moment.

2. What surprised you the most this year?
3. What FIRST(s) did you have this year?
4. What are you not going to bring with you into 2020?

"The same God that placed that star in a precise orbit millennia before it appeared over Bethlehem... has given at least equal attention to the placement of each of us in precise human orbits so that we may, if we will, not only lead others but warm them as well."

- Neal A. Maxwell
