The best way to get great ideas is to get lots of ideas and throw the bad ones away. 2. Create ideas that are 15 minutes ahead of their time...not light years ahead. 3. Always look for a second right answer. 4. If at first you don't succeed, take a break. 5. Write down your ideas before you forget them. 6. If everyone says you are wrong, you're one step ahead. If everyone laughs at you, you're two steps ahead. 7. The answer to your problem "pre-exists." You need to ask the right question to reveal the answer. 8. When you ask a dumb question, you get a smart answer. 9. Never solve a problem from its original perspective. 10. Visualize your problem as solved before solving it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10566</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If a man earnestly seeks a righteous life, his first act of abstinence is from animal food. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/185]]></link><description><![CDATA[If a man earnestly seeks a righteous life, his first act of abstinence is from animal food.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/185</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We seldom find people ungrateful so long as it is thought we can serve them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18170]]></link><description><![CDATA[We seldom find people ungrateful so long as it is thought we can serve them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18170</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is questionable if all the mechanical inventions yet made have lightened the day's toil of any human being. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9455]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is questionable if all the mechanical inventions yet made have lightened the day's toil of any human being.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9455</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Nicholas Ferrar, Deacon, Founder of the Little Gidding Community, 1637   Some men, not content with [Christ] ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7553]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Nicholas Ferrar, Deacon, Founder of the Little Gidding Community, 1637   Some men, not content with [Christ] alone, are borne hither and thither from one hope to another; even if they concern themselves chiefly with him, they nevertheless stray from the right way in turning some part of their thinking in another direction.

Paul, too, used this expression, but he placed alongside it a parallel form of words, "in Christ" or "in Christ Jesus". Where we find these words used we are being reminded of the intimate union with Christ which makes the Christian life an eternal life lived in the midst of time. The deeper shade of meaning would often be conveyed to our minds if we translated the phrase "in communion with Christ". But, Paul's Christ mysticism is saved from the introverted individualism of many forms of mysticism by his insistence that communion with Christ is also communion with all who are Christ's.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7511</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wisdom is before him that hath understanding; but the eyes of a fool are in the ends of the earth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14822]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wisdom is before him that hath understanding; but the eyes of a fool are in the ends of the earth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14822</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No man is more unhappy than the one who is never in adversity; the greatest affliction of life is never ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/725]]></link><description><![CDATA[No man is more unhappy than the one who is never in adversity; the greatest affliction of life is never to be afflicted.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/725</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It takes but one positive thought when given a chance to survive and thrive to overpower an entire army of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66213]]></link><description><![CDATA[It takes but one positive thought when given a chance to survive and thrive to overpower an entire army of negative thoughts.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66213</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old problems from a new angle, requires creative imagination and marks real ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20507]]></link><description><![CDATA[To raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old problems from a new angle, requires creative imagination and marks real advance in science.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20507</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Success comes from knowing that you did your best to become the best that you are capable of becoming. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64272]]></link><description><![CDATA[Success comes from knowing that you did your best to become the best that you are capable of becoming.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64272</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think Sean Burke in the last three or four years is a top five guy.
