Well Folks,

Lets get back at them by using a few more Bible verses in our daily conversation and decision making. Of course this might require most of us to do more reading in the Bible.

I used to give out the following when I conducted seminars:



BUSINESS MANAGEMENT PRINCIPLES FROM AN ANCIENT SOURCE

"The more you have, the more you spend, right up to the limits of your income...."

"Savings are put into risky investments that turn sour, and soon there is nothing left to pass on to one's son. The man who speculates is soon back to where he began - with nothing."

"Wealth from gambling quickly disappears; wealth from hard work grows."

"It is poor judgment to countersign another's note; to become responsible for his debts."

"The intelligent man is always open to new ideas. In fact, he looks for them."

"Steady plodding brings prosperity; hasty speculation brings poverty."

"Any enterprise is built by wise planning, becomes strong through common sense, and profits wonderfully by keeping abreast of the facts."

"You are a poor specimen if you can't stand the pressure of adversity."

"Develop your business first before building your house."

"A little extra sleep, a little more slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest means that poverty will break in upon you suddenly like a robber, and violently like a bandit."

"If you wait for perfect conditions, you will never get anything done."

"Crooks are jealous of each other's loot, while good men long to help each other."

"It is possible to give away; and become richer! It is also possible to hold on too tightly and lose everything. Yes, the generous man shall be rich. By watering others, he waters himself."

"Plans go wrong with too few counselors; many counselors bring success."

Those are all good! Could you do me the huge favor of citing the Bible verses so I can look all of them up in my King James? I recognize some of them, but not all.

Thanks, MS
