“The lazy man does the hardest work.”

If your real desire is to be good, there is no need to wait for the money before you do it; you can do it now, this very moment, and just where you are.

A man cannot directly choose his circumstances, but he can choose his thoughts, and so indirectly, yet surely, shape his circumstances.

He who would accomplish little need sacrifice little; he who would achieve much must sacrifice much. He who would attain highly must sacrifice greatly.

The greatest achievement was at first and for a time a dream. The oak sleeps in the acorn; the bird waits in the egg, and in the highest vision of the soul a waking angel stirs. Dreams are the seedlings of realities.

He who has conquered weakness, and has put away all selfish thoughts, belongs neither to oppressor nor oppressed. He is free.

A man is literally what he thinks, his character being the complete sum of all his thoughts.

He no longer acts from self but does what is right – what is universally and eternally right.

He is poor who is dissatisfied; he is rich who is contented with what he has, and he is richer who is generous with what he has.

The circumstances which a man encounters with suffering are the result of his own mental inharmony.

Man is buffeted by circumstances so long as he believes himself to be the creature of outside conditions.

Your circumstances may be uncongenial, but they shall not long remain so if you but perceive an Ideal and strive to reach it.

The calmness of mind is one of the beautiful jewels of wisdom. It is the result of long and patient effort in self-control.

The dream is the promise for what you will be one day.

Self-control is strength, Right Thought is mastery, Calmness is power. Say unto your heart, Peace, be still.

Men are anxious to improve their circumstances, but are unwilling to improve themselves; they, therefore, remain bound.

All that man achieves and all that he fails to achieve is the direct result of his own thoughts.

Each moment of my life I was dreaming of how great I could be, and continued working hard. Each time I closed my eyes I could see me shining bright like a sun.

All of us do not have equal talent. But , all of us have an equal opportunity to develop our talents.

Everyone knew it was impossible, until a fool who didn’t know came along and did it.

Luck is preparation multiplied by opportunity.

I believe in hard work and luck, and that the first often leads to the second.

Do your work, then step back. The only path to serenity.

I can never stop working hard. Each day I feel that I have to improve. Hardwork. Determination.I gotta keep pushing myself.

The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be.
