“Unless what you say benefits the other person, don’t say it.”

Losers live in the past. Winners learn from the past and enjoy working in the present toward the future.

Failure should be our teacher, not our undertaker. Failure is delay, not defeat. It is a temporary detour, not a dead end. Failure is something we can avoid only by saying nothing, doing nothing, and being nothing.

Don’t let negative people determine your self-worth.

You are your own scriptwriter and the play is never finished, no matter what your age or position in life.

Commitment is that turning point in your life when you seize the moment to alter your destiny.

We’ve got to have a dream if we are going to make a dream come true.

God’s Law of Cause and Effect: Your rewards in life will always be equal to the amount and quality of service rendered, in the long run.

Expect the best, plan for the worst, and prepare to be surprised.

Don’t wait for mentors to seek you out. Don’t ever wait for your phone calls to be returned, your letters to be answered, your faxes to be responded to. Keep going out and asking question.

Most people spend most of their time on low-priority busywork because it requires no additional knowledge, skills, or imagination-or courage. In a word, it’s easier.

The winner’s edge is not in a gifted birth, a high IQ, or in talent. The winner’s edge is all in the attitude, not aptitude. Attitude is the criterion for success.

You can only do good if you feel good.

The most splendid achievement of all is the constant striving to surpass yourself and to be worthy of your own approval.

Chase your passion, not your pension.

Time And health are two precious assets that we don’t recognize and appreciate until they have been depleted.
