We have all been there - lying in the chair at the dentist's office staring up at blank ceiling tiles. The hygienist is doing her thing while having a conversation with you and all you can say is "uh-huh" because she's busy scraping plaque off your teeth!
Yes, I did have a dentist appointment this afternoon, I did have my teeth cleaned, and no - I did not have any cavities! =) I did, however, find inspiration while I was there! Jennifer, the dental hygienist, posted this on the ceiling for her patients to see while they are lying face up staring at what would be blank ceiling tiles.

- Commit yourself to quality.
- Understand that happiness is not based on possessions, power, or prestige, but on relationships with people you love and respect.

- Be a self-starter.
- Be decisive even if it means you'll sometimes be wrong.
