“Success and rest don’t sleep together.”

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.

Remember that there is no happiness in having or in getting, but only in giving.

What is past is past. You can do nothing about yesterday and last month and the failures of last year, but you can do everything toward making tomorrow and the rest of your life what you always dreamed it could be.

You will achieve your grand dream, a day at a time, so set goals for each day.

Let your first hour set the theme of success and positive action that is certain to echo through your entire day. Today will never happen again.

Always do your best. What you plant now, you will harvest later.

I will persist until I succeed. Always will I take another step. If that is of no avail I will take another, and yet another. In truth, one step at a time is not too difficult. I know that small attempts, repeated, will complete any undertaking.

Your only limitations are those you set up in your mind, or permit others to set up for you.

Always will I dig for reasons to applaud; never will I scratch for excuses to gossip. When I am tempted to criticize I will bite on my tongue; when I am moved to praise I will shout from the roofs.

Never, in all of the seventy billion humans who have walked this planet since the beginning of time has there been anyone exactly like you.

Remember that the most difficult tasks are consummated, not by a single explosive burst of energy or effort, but by the constant daily application of the best you have within you.

Pay less attention to what you hear about someone, and more to what you learn about them as you make the effort.

You grow stronger after heartbreak like the pouring rain nourishes trees, flowers, the earth, instead of making them drown. Like painful tears make your heart stronger after every drop.

You will go through tough times, it’s about getting through them.

Don’t ‘take care’, take a risk!

When God loves you, what can be better than that?

Losers let it happen; winners make it happen!

He who is not getting better is getting worse.

But where was I to start? The world is so vast, I shall start with the country I knew best, my own. But my country is so very large. I had better start with my town. But my town, too, is large. I had best start with my street. No, my home. No, my family. Never mind, I shall start with myself.

I’ve been strong and determined all my life about many things I’ve wanted.
