Still, you can learn to manage your non-efficient thinking and emotions. Just learn to be as conscious of your *mental and emotional energy expenditures and returns* as you are conscious of your dollar expenditures and returns. Remember the mental and emotional budget sheet. If you *halfway* play with this concept, it can give you a new perspective on energy economy. -Doc Childre.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13734</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My way of joking is to tell the truth; it's the funniest joke in the world. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28063]]></link><description><![CDATA[My way of joking is to tell the truth; it's the funniest joke in the world.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28063</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whoever in prayer can say, "Our Father," acknowledges and should feel the brotherhood of the whole race of mankind ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4933]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whoever in prayer can say, "Our Father," acknowledges and should feel the brotherhood of the whole race of mankind]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4933</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[That could be the situation throughout the game, but Razorbacks defensive backs coach Bobby Allen said the defense expects to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30338]]></link><description><![CDATA[[That could be the situation throughout the game, but Razorbacks defensive backs coach Bobby Allen said the defense expects to keep its usual scheme.] We match up our corners vs. wide receivers in everything we do.

But if we should feel entitled to throw out one part of the witness of Ephesians to Christ, why not the rest of it also: for instance, Christ's Lordship over the church and in the heart? It is unfair and scarcely honest to consider the Bible or parts of it as a cake from which we can pick out merely the raisins we happen to like. Speaking the truth in love and witnessing to the biblical Christ may imply the necessity to speak also of some very strange things.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6430</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That's totally it, ...

I am referring to the almost total ignorance of the content and implication of the Christian Faith shown by many "clever" people today. Frankly, I find it horrifying to discover that men who are experts in their own line -- in astronomy, genetics, or nuclear physics, for example -- have no adult knowledge of what the Church of Christ stands for, and a complete blank ignorance of what the Church is achieving today. It is the more horrifying because people who rightly respect the expert for his knowledge in his own field have no idea that he has not carefully examined and reluctantly discarded Christianity; but in all probability he has never studied it at all!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7853</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The growth and development of people is the highest calling of leadership. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66849]]></link><description><![CDATA[The growth and development of people is the highest calling of leadership.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66849</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God will not look you over for medals degrees or diplomas, but for scars. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66134]]></link><description><![CDATA[God will not look you over for medals degrees or diplomas, but for scars.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66134</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Stone walls do not a prison make, Nor iron bars a cage,  Minds innocent and quiet take   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48264]]></link><description><![CDATA[Stone walls do not a prison make, Nor iron bars a cage,  Minds innocent and quiet take   That for an hermitage.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48264</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Under spreading ensigns moving nigh, in slow But firm battalion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16143]]></link><description><![CDATA[Under spreading ensigns moving nigh, in slow But firm battalion.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16143</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With power comes great responsibilities. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54005]]></link><description><![CDATA[With power comes great responsibilities.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54005</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People exaggerate the value of things they haven't got: everybody worships truth and unselfishness because they have no experience with ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60353]]></link><description><![CDATA[People exaggerate the value of things they haven't got: everybody worships truth and unselfishness because they have no experience with them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60353</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sabi is the color of haikai.
