1. Never lose your capacity for enthusiasm. When thats gone, nothing else matters.
2. Never lose your capacity for indignation.
3. Don’t Judge people or typecast them too quickly.  Never assume that a person is bad. Assume that at best he is good  and at worst he belongs in that gray area between good and bad.
4. Never be impressed by wealth alone or thrown by poverty.
5. If you can’t be generous when life gets hard you won’t be when it gets easy.
6. The greatest builder of confidence is the ability to do something, anything well
7. When that confidence comes, strive for humility.
8. The way to become truly useful is to seek the best that other brains have to offer. What one person can think of another person can build. Use the minds of others to supplement you own and ALWAYS give credit where credit id due.
9. Communicate! The greatest tragedies in the world and in person events, stem from misunderstanding.

By Earl Nightingale

I came across this earlier today and thought that even though all are great guidelines for life, all of them apply directly to your work life.  Specifically 1, 6, 8 and 9 have a tremendous impact on work life.  Communication being the most important and often most lacking!
