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

A smile remains the most inexpensive gift I can bestow on anyone and yet its powers can vanquish kingdoms.

Already I am smiling in anticipation of the good to come.

Obstacles are necessary for success because in selling, as in all careers of importance, victory comes only after many struggles and countless defeats.

True security lies not in the things one has, but in the things one can do without.

I will act now. Success will not wait. If I delay, success will become wed to another and lost to me forever. This is the time. This is the place. I am the person.

Remind thyself, in the darkest moments, that every failure is only a step toward success, every detection of what is false directs you toward what is true, every trial exhausts some tempting form of error, and every adversity will only hide, for a time, your path to peace and fulfillment.

I have been given eyes to see and a mind to think, and now I know a great secret of life, for I perceive, at last, that all my problems, discouragements , and heartaches are, in truth, great opportunities in disguise.

Today will never happen again. Don’t waste it with a false start or no start at all.

You can never win when you wear the ugly cloak of self-pity and the sour sound of whining.

If I must be a slave to habit let me be a slave to good habits.

Action will destroy your procrastination.

I am here for a purpose and that purpose is to grow into a mountain, not to shrink to a grain of sand.

Each failure to sell will increase your chances for success at your next attempt.

I am not a human being, I am a human becoming.

I will make love my greatest weapon and none on whom I call can defend against its force.

I will love the light for it shows me the way, yet I will endure the darkness because it shows me the stars.

If I fail, I try again, and again, and again.

My determination is not to remain stubbornly with my ideas, but I’ll leave them and go over to others as soon as I am shown plausible reasons which I can grasp.

The decisions we make dictate the schedules we keep. The schedules we keep determine the lives we live. The lives we live determine how we spend our souls. So, this isn’t just about finding time. This is about honoring God with the time we have.

Positive thinking is how you think about a problem. Enthusiasm is how you feel about a problem. The two together determine what you do about a problem.

If you want to get somewhere you have to know where you want to go and how to get there. Then never, never, never give up.

If you want to make a movie, make it. Don’t wait for a grant, don’t wait for the perfect circumstances, just make it.

Trying to determine the structure of a protein by UV spectroscopy was like trying to determine the structure of a piano by listening to the sound it made while being dropped down a flight of stairs.

I don’t give up because I don’t give up. I don’t believe in it.
