Your Personal Image: It's Your Most Important YOU Asset
Your personal image: It’s the most important “YOU” asset that you own. Your personal image, the perception that people have about you, affects your success in every aspect of life – your life on the job, your social life, even your "personal" relationships with others.

Favorite Quotes & Thoughts from Paul Barton
"The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who at best, if he wins, knows the thrills of high achievement, and, if he fails, at least fails daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat."
