“The ability to negotiate with other people without friction and argument is the outstanding quality of all successful people.”

Nothing is impossible to the person who backs desire with enduring faith.

Success is knowing what you’re doing, loving what you’re doing, and believing what you’re doing.

To become successful you must be a person of action. Merely to “know” is not sufficient. It is necessary both to know and do.

Cherish your visions and your dreams, as they are the children of your soul; the blueprints of your ultimate achievements.

You can’t change where you started, but you can change the direction you are going. It’s not what you are going to do, but it’s what you are doing now that counts.

It takes half your life before you discover life is a do-it-yourself project.

Effort only fully releases its reward after a person refuses to quit.

Patience, persistence and perspiration make an unbeatable combination for success.

To succeed in life, succeed at being yourself.

Live each day as if it were your last, and you’ll develop a keen respect for opportunity.

Most failures could have been converted into successes if someone had held on another minute or made more effort.

If you try and fail, make another effort, and still another until you succeed.

You become what you think about.

Life reflects your own thoughts back to you.

Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve.

Successful people, in all callings, never stop acquiring specialized knowledge related to their major purpose, business, or profession.
