People are
illogical, unreasonable, 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 will win false friends and true enemies.
Succeed anyway.
The good you do
today will be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway.
Honesty and
frankness make you vulnerable.
Be honest and frank
anyway.
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 anyway.
People favor
underdogs but follow only top dogs.
Fight for a few
underdogs anyway.
What you spend
years building may be destroyed overnight.
Build anyway.
People really need
help but may attack you if you do help them.
Help people anyway.
Give the world the
best you have and you’ll get kicked in the teeth.
Give the world the
best you have anyway.

Commandments by Dr. Kent M. Keith
