“There can be no failure to a man who has not lost his courage, his character, his self respect, or his self-confidence. He is still a King.”

Absorb knowledge from every possible source and opportunity. Power gravitates to the man who knows how and why.

We lift ourselves by our own thought; we climb upon our vision of ourselves.

There is no medicine like hope.

We must give more in order to get more. It is the generous giving of ourselves that produces the generous harvest.

Our thoughts and imaginations are the only real limits to our possibilities.

A woman who is self-reliant, positive, optimistic, and undertakes her work with the assurance of success magnetizes her condition. She draws to herself the creative powers of the universe.

Most of our obstacles would melt away if, instead of cowering before them, we should make up our minds to walk boldly through them.

The secret of happiness is in a cheerful, contented mind. He is poor who is dissatisfied; he is rich who is contented with what he has, and can enjoy what others own.

Joyfulness keeps the heart and face young. A good laugh makes us better friends with ourselves and everybody around us.

No one has a corner on success. It is his who pays the price.

There is no law by which one can, as long as he thinks he can’t.

Worry clogs the brain and paralyzes the thought. A troubled brain can not think clearly, vigorously, locally.

The golden opportunity you are seeking is in yourself. It is not in your environment; it is not in luck or chance, or the help of others; it is in yourself alone.

No man can be ideally successful until he has found his place. Like a locomotive he is strong on the track, but weak anywhere else.

Obstacles are like wild animals. They are cowards but they will bluff you if they can. If they see you are afraid of them… they are liable to spring upon you; but if you look them squarely in the eye, they will slink out of sight.

The greatest thing a man can do in this world is to make the most possible out of the stuff that has been given him. This is success, and there is no other.

On any day – in any given event – you have to believe in yourself and back yourself 100%

I’d exhale every breath I have just so you could inhale all my confidence in you.

In tribulation immediately draw near to God with confidence, and you will receive strength, enlightenment, and instruction.

I’d exhale every breath I have just so you could inhale all my confidence in you.

The things a man has to have are hope and confidence in himself against odds. And he must be ready to choose death before dishonor without making too much song and dance about it.

Fear creates its own self-fulfilling dynamic- as people give into it, they lose energy and momentum. Their lack of confidence translates into inaction that lowers confidence levels even further, on and on.

Leave everyone you meet better than you found them. Become an encourager of potential versus a destroyer of confidence.

The more confident you are, the less doubt you will have, and the more likely your success will be.
