“Even the smallest achievements pave a way to great success.”

Let people know that you appreciate their performance and they will respond by doing even better.

We must have a theme, a goal, a purpose in our lives. If you don’t know where you’re aiming, you don’t have a goal. My goal is to live my life in such a way that when I die, someone can say, she cared.

The more enjoyment people derive from their work, the better they will produce.

Each of us wants to feel good about himself or herself, but to me it is just as important to make others feel the same way.

People will support that which they help to create.

Left unattended, problems only intensify.

Don’t limit yourself.

I do believe in encouraging a person to compete with herself… at Mary Kay Cosmetics, we’ve made that philosophy a company policy.

You can go as far as your mind lets you.

The first step is the hardest – making a commitment to yourself, for yourself.

Over the years, I have observed that nearly all high achievers know how to make good of those 1440 minutes in each day.

A good goal is like a strenuous exercise – it makes you stretch.

You never really fail until you stop wanting.

A risk-taking environment starts at the top of a corporation. If the CEO doesn’t have this spirit, chances are you won’t find it anywhere else in the organization.

There are three types of people in this world: those who make things happen, those who watch things happen and those who wonder what happened. We all have a choice. You can decide which type of person you want to be. I have always chosen to be in the first group.

People are happiest when they have goals, small and large, because they can look forward to attaining them.

I could only achieve success in my life through self-discipline, and I applied it until my wish and my will became one.

Whenever you want to achieve something, keep your eyes open, concentrate and make sure you know exactly what it is you want. No one can hit their target with their eyes closed.

I’m all about challenges and seeing if I can go out and see if I can achieve something. If at the end of the day I do it, great. If I don’t, I can live with myself.

To succeed in life and achieve results, you must understand and master three mighty forces – desire, belief, and expectation.

To be successful you have to be selfish, or else you never achieve. And once you get to your highest level, then you have to be unselfish. Stay reachable. Stay in touch. Don’t isolate.

And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.

Keep your mind focused on what you want and act accordingly. You will achieve success!

I believe Success is achieved by ordinary people with extraordinary determination.
