Financial crisis hits condo associations


Last Update: 12:01 AM ET Sep 8, 2010

People often buy a condo unit partly because they don't need to worry about cutting the lawn or fixing the roof -- their condo association takes care of maintenance and repairs for them, with those services paid through homeowner assessments each month. At least, that's the way it's supposed to work. ...Read the rest of the story

Napoleon Hill Foundation: Thought for the Day - August 28, 2010 

OFFER RESULTS, NOT ALIBIS. 

There are many people who-perhaps with the best of intentions-make promises they somehow never get around to keeping. These folks have usually developed a number of perfectly plausible explanations for not meeting their commitments; they have become experts at explaining away their failures. Successful people, though, are those who accept responsibility for their lives. They know that talk is cheap; actions are all that really matter. The world is waiting for men and women who seek the opportunity to render real service-the kind of service that lightens the burdens of their neighbors, the kind of service that 95 percent of people do not render because they do not understand it. When you provide a truly useful service, enthusiastically and in a spirit of genuine helpfulness, success will automatically follow. The world seeks out such individuals and rewards them accordingly.
