Overview

Every page of this little gem is filled with countless principles that guided Abraham Lincoln throughout his life. Here is just a sample that can help guide you, too:

Remember everyone likes a compliment

Wage only one war at a time

Use force only as a last resort

When you make it to the top, turn and reach down for the person behind you

Have malice toward none and charity for all

Don't surrender the game leaving any available card unplayed

Seize the initiative and never relinquish it

Try not to feel insecure or threatened by your followers

Unite your followers with a "corporate mission"

Choose as your chief subordinates those people who crave responsibility and take risks

Don't lose confidence in your people when they fail

When you meet with an individual, try to part with any unpleasant impression on either side
