“It is not failure itself that holds you back; it is the fear of failure that paralyzes you.”

Never settle for anything less than your best.

Take a deep breath, relax and imagine yourself exactly as you wish to be.

If rejection destroys your self-esteem, you’re letting others hold you as an emotional hostage.

Spend eighty percent of your time focusing on the opportunities of tomorrow rather than the problems of yesterday.

Activity equals results. If you want to increase your success, increase your activity.

The world is full of people who are waiting for someone to come along and motivate them to be the kind of people they wish they could be. The problem is that no one is coming to the rescue.

Your ability to get along well with others will determine your happiness and success as much as any other factor.

Your persistence is your belief in yourself.

Intense, burning desire is the motivational force that enables you to overcome any obstacle and achieve almost any goal.

In the final analysis, you always get paid for your results.

The only thing that you can never have too much of is love.

The more you do for others without expectation of return, the more you’ll get back from the most unexpected sources.

You become what you think about most of the time.

You determine your future by the thoughts and pictures you hold in your mind today.

Luck is predictable; the harder you work, the luckier you get.

It’s quantity of time at home and quality of time at work that counts; don’t mix them up!

You have your way. I have my way. As for the right way, the correct way, and the only way, it does not exist.

Remember that failure is an event, not a person.

Failure is an option here. If things are not failing, you are not innovating enough.

It’s fine to celebrate success but it is more important to heed the lessons of failure.

One of the most common causes of failure is the habit of quitting when one is overtaken by temporary defeat.

Do the one thing you think you cannot do. Fail at it. Try again. Do better the second time.

If you don’t have daily objectives, you qualify as a dreamer.

It is not the failure of others to appreciate your abilities that should trouble you, but rather your failure to appreciate theirs.
