Findings Quote by Robert Kiyosaki
“I grew up playing football and hunting; and went to military school and then into the Marine Corps. Kindness is not a valued trait. That's why I had to learn kindness. As I grow older I'm finding it's something I definitely need to put focus on, thought and practice. Kindness actually comes from the heart, so it's really stretching inside of me. It's been quite a magical journey for me to learn to be kinder in my dealing[s] with other people.”
