1. Help the other fellow to help himself
In the Henry Ford archives there is a small card on which one reads these printed words: Help the other fellow." And under it Ford had written: To help himself."

2. AJA: Analysis-Judgment-Action, and not Action-Judgment-Analysis. 
On the door of a classroom for inmates at Camp Sampaguita in Munlinlupa Penitentiary, is written in bold letters A-J-A. It is an acronym of Analysis-Judgment-Action. It became a motto to the residents in this minimum security compound. And they would jogged reciting AJA, AJA, AJA.  

As their teacher, I was delighted by the enthusiasm of the inmates who were enrolled in a special course sponsored by a foundation.  

One morning an inmate approached me.  He was very sad and told me what a big mistake he committed. "Napagpalit ko po, ang dalawang A." 

He exchanged the last A with the first A.  Action-Judgment-Analysis. 

"Kaya sir, naandito ako sa pihitan." That's how he got into trouble and imprisoned. 

3. More than Open Sesame!


"He who wants to do good
knocks at the gate;
he who loves
finds the gate open."
