Denise Fleissner Ralston

1. Set goals in sand, not cement. Being flexible models compassion, and sometimes that is the only thing necessary to achieve greatness.

2. Nurture a hobby that keeps you connected to one another. When you are doing something you love, with or for someone you care about, you are “living in the spirit”—an essential attribute of human connectedness. 

3. Create a list of house rules: Wear your seatbelt; Pray daily; Accept rather than judge; Acknowledge we are all delightfully different; and always say hello, goodbye, and thank you because that’s what my parents taught me.
