“You can’t conquer reality by running away from it.”

Your only limitations are those you set up in your mind, or permit others to set up for you.

Always will I dig for reasons to applaud; never will I scratch for excuses to gossip. When I am tempted to criticize I will bite on my tongue; when I am moved to praise I will shout from the roofs.

Never, in all of the seventy billion humans who have walked this planet since the beginning of time has there been anyone exactly like you.

Remember that the most difficult tasks are consummated, not by a single explosive burst of energy or effort, but by the constant daily application of the best you have within you.

Pay less attention to what you hear about someone, and more to what you learn about them as you make the effort.

Never settle for the crumbs of life.

Failure will never overtake me if my determination to succeed is strong enough.

My days of whining and complaining about others have come to an end. Nothing is easier than fault finding. All it will do is discolor my personality so that none will want to associate with me. That was my old life. No more.

Do not listen to those who weep and complain, for their disease is contagious.

Do all things with love.

I will persist. I will always take another step. If that is of no avail I will take another, and yet another.

Take the attitude of a student, never be too big to ask questions, never know too much to learn something new.

Each misfortune you encounter will carry in it the seed of tomorrow’s good luck.

Use wisely your power of choice.

Realize how good you really are.

Welcome every morning with a smile. Look on the new day as another special gift from your Creator, another golden opportunity to complete what you were unable to finish yesterday.

The world as we have created it is a process of our thinking. It cannot be changed without changing our thinking.

May your choices reflect your hopes, not your fears.

Success is 99% failure.

When two forces unite, their efficiency double.

Just as a snake sheds its skin, we must shed our past over and over again.

In true dialogue, both sides are willing to change.

Every day we make decisions, big and small. Those choices paint a picture of who we are.

The quieter you become, the more you are able to hear.
