		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Management is nothing more than motivating other people.&#8221; Are you a manager in your place of employment?

		<title>Business Motivation from Ben Franklin</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Well done is better than well said.&#8221; Talk is cheap. Action is a different thing. There are talkers and there are doers. Even in the college classes I teach it is very apparent.  Some of the students talk about when they are going to get their assignments done; the doers just get them done. Joseph [...]]]></description>

		<title>Motivational Words from W. Clement Stone</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;There is little difference in people, but that little difference makes a big difference. The little difference is attitude. The big difference is whether it is positive or negative.&#8221; I&#8217;ve noticed a lot of people knocking the concept of positive thinking lately.
