Every Silver Lining Has A Cloud.

We Treat Our People Like Royalty. If You Honor And Serve The People Who Work For You, They Will Honor And Serve You.

I Put A Lot Of Emphasis On How To Treat People. The Reason For This Is Simple. The Real Success Of Our Personal Lives And Careers Can Best Be Measured By The Relationships We Have With The People Most Dear To Us - Our Family, Friends, And Coworkers. If We Fail In This Aspect Of Our Lives, No Matter How Vast Our Worldly Possessions Or How High On The Corporate Ladder We Climb, We Will Have Achieved Very Little.

The Success [of Mary Kay Inc.] Is Much, Much Deeper Than Just Dollars And Cents And Buildings And Assets. The Real Success Of Our Company Is Measured To Me In The Lives That Have Been Touched And Given Hope.

I Firmly Believe That All We Send Into The Lives Of Other Does Indeed Come Back Into Our Own. I Also Believe That Christmas Is That Wondrous Time Of Year When Each Of Us Renews Our Faith That A Better World Is Possible. By Trying To Live Christmas 12 Months A Year, We Can Make This World A Better Place To Live - For Others And For Ourselves.

Many Women Have Made The Mistake Of Changing Their Beliefs To Accommodate Their Work; It Must Be The Other Way Around. No Circumstance Is So Unusual That It Demands A Double Standard Or Separates Us From Our Faith. No Matter How Fast The World Changes, Exemplary Values Must Remain Constant.
