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

Don’t ‘take care’, take a risk!

Losers let it happen; winners make it happen!

Make certain that your goals are not measured in comparison with others.

By staying focused and flexible, you will meet and exceed your major life-forming goals. Success is not a resting-place – it is a launching pad.

Real power comes by empowering others.

You become that to which you are most exposed.

If you believe you can, you probably can. If you believe you won’t, you most assuredly won’t. Belief is the ignition switch that gets you off the launching pad.

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.

I can feel guilty about the past, apprehensive about the future, but only in the present can I act. The ability to be in the present moment is a major component of mental wellness.

The very existence of libraries affords the best evidence that we may yet have hope for the future of man

Dear future generations: Please accept our apologies. We were rolling drunk on petroleum.

You can’t insure against the future, except by really believing in the best bit of you, and in the power beyond it.

Hope & curiosity about the future seemed better than guarantees. The unknown was always so attractive to me, and still is.

I like the dreams of the future better than the history of the past.

The greatest danger to our future is apathy.

If we have to use force, it is because we are America. We are the indispensable nation. We stand tall. We see further into the future.
