“Find at least one person each day, and more if possible, in whom you see some good quality that is worthy of praise, and praise it.

Speak your words of praise with such earnestness that they will impress those to whom you speak. Then watch what happens. You will have rendered those whom you praise a decided benefit of great value to them,”

Here, again, lack of cooperation between a few leads to hardship for millions of people.”
