Oprah's Observations
I finally had a chance last weekend to watch the Oprah Show Finale which I had taped weeks ago. I thoroughly enjoyed her 25-year recap. Some of Oprah's observations resonated with me so greatly that I thought they were worth sharing. I hope you also find them valuable, either personally or professionally.
1. "Not everybody gets paid for it, but everyone gets called. What's your calling?"
2. "There's a difference between thinking you deserve to be happy and knowing that you are worthy of happiness."
3. "People want to know: Do you see me? Do you hear me? Does what I say mean anything to you?"
