“The activity you’re most avoiding contains your biggest opportunity.”

Person who chases two rabbits catches neither.

Your limits are liars, you fears are thieves.

The quality of success you will experience in your life ultimately depends upon the tiny choices you make every minute of every hour of every day.

Things are not as bad as it seems. The situations that cause us sorrow are the same ones that introduce us to the strength, power and wisdom that we truly are.

The business of business is relationships; the business of life is human connection.

The way you begin each day defines how you’ll live each day.

The true value of a big dream is who you must grow into to live that dream.

Your life is a mirror. Life gives us not what we want. Life gives us who we are.

Critics only speak up when they see someone shining. Average work doesn’t threaten them.

Until our mission becomes our obsession, we’ll be chained to the realm of average.

See your life as a giant adventure. Keep pushing the envelope, and remember that every dream starts off small.

Investing in yourself is the best investment you will ever make. It will not only improve your life, it will improve the lives of all those around you.

There are no mistakes in life, only lessons. There is no such thing as a negative experience, only opportunities to grow, learn and advance along the road of self-mastery. From struggle comes strength. Even pain can be a wonderful teacher.

The real reward for doing your best work is not the money you make but the leader you become.

It’s amazing how far you will get by just staying with something long enough. Most people give up too early.

Only those who seek shall find.

Nothing is more terrible than activity without insight.

Let not a single day pass without your learning a verse, half a verse, or a fourth of it, or even one letter of it; nor without attending to charity, study and other pious activity.

What contributed to my writing early on is how my mom encouraged it. She kept the TV off because she wanted my siblings and I to be engaged and active. So we made forts, put on plays, musicals, and I wrote like crazy.

War is the supreme test of man in which he rises to heights never approached in any other activity.

Prune – prune businesses, products, activities, people. Do it annually.

Rest is a productive activity.

Never mistake activity for achievement.

I think that in any group activity – whether it be business, sports, or family – there has to be leadership or it won’t be successful.
