Nothing of value comes without being earned. - MJ
_________________________________________________
If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives - do good anyway.
If you're successful, you'll win false friends and true enemies - succeed anyway.
The good you do today will perhaps be forgotten tomorrow - do good anyway.
Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable - be honest and frank anyway.
The biggest man with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest man with the smallest mind - think big anyway.
People favor underdogs but follow only hot dogs - fight for the few underdogs anyway.
What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight - build anyway.
People really need help but may attack you if you help them - help them anyway.
Give the world the best that you have and you will get kicked in the teeth - give the world the best that you have anyway.
If better is possible, then good is not enough.
** Still one of my favorites.
