The 10 Paradoxical Commandments 

*note* This list is actually taken from a book I took notes from a few years ago. I am sorry I do not recall the title of this book. I have read so many books over my life time they are all a blur me (well some). This is also no way to use a jump break as far as formatting goes. <3 Andy

1. People are illogical, unreasonable, and self centered. Love them anyway. 
2. If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives. Do good anyway. 
3. If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies. Succeed Anyway. 
4. The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway.
5. Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable. Be honest and frank anyways.
6. The biggest men and women with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest men and women with the smallest minds. Think BIG anyways.
7. People favor underdogs but follow only top dogs. Fight for a few underdogs anyway.
8. What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight. Build anyway.
9. People really need help but may attack you if you do help them. Help anyway.
10. Give the world the best you have and you'll get kicked in the teeth. Give the world the best you have anyway.
