Read "Mandela's Way: Lessons on Life, Love and Courage"

(The June 4 Compassionate Living Tip from Interfaith Path's to Peace)

http://www.mandelasway.com/book/

Mandela’s Way is a distillation of countless hours of conversation between Rick Stengel and Nelson Mandela's  into what Stengel sees as fifteen core truths of Mandela’s life - truths we would all be wise to live by. Each truth is expanded upon and brought to life with examples of its application in Mandela’s own life.
They are:

  1. Courage is not the absence of fear.
  2. Be measured.
  3. Lead from the front.
  4. Look the part.
  5. Lead from the back.
  6. See the good in others.
  7. Keep your rivals close.
  8. Have a core principle.
  9. Know when to say no.
  10. Know your enemy.
  11. It’s always both.
  12. Love makes the difference.
  13. It’s a long game.
  14. Quitting is leading too.
  15. Find your own garden.
