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

I will act now. I will act now. I will act now. With these words I can condition my mind to perform every action necessary for my success.

Opportunities, many times, are so small that we glimpse them not and yet they are often the seeds of great enterprises. Opportunities are also everywhere and so you must always let your hook be hanging. When you least expect it, a great fish will swim by.

Count your blessings. Once you realize how valuable you are and how much you have going for you, the smiles will return, the sun will break out, the music will play, and you will finally be able to move forward the life that God intended for you with grace, strength, courage, and confidence.

The victory of success is half won when one gains the habit of setting goals and achieving them. Even the most tedious chore will become endurable as you parade through each day convinced that every task, no matter how menial or boring, brings you closer to achieving your dreams.

Always render more and better service than is expected of you, no matter what your task may be.

Always seek out the seed of triumph in every adversity.

Each problem has a positive side.

My reasoning they may counter; my speech they may distrust; my apparel they may disapprove; my face they may reject; and even my bargains may cause them suspicion; yet my love will melt all hearts liken to the sun whose rays soften the coldest clay.

Weak is he who permits his thoughts to control his actions; strong is he who forces his actions to control his thoughts.

I will greet this day with love in my heart.

So long as I can laugh, never will I be poor.

One of the great undiscovered joys of life comes from doing everything one attempts to the best of one’s ability. The smallest task, well done, becomes a miracle of achievement.

And so long as I can laugh, never will I be poor. This then, is one of nature’s greatest gifts and I will waste it no more.

I will greet this day with love in my heart. For this is the greatest secret of success in all ventures. Muscles can split a shield and even destroy life itself but only the unseen power of love can open the hearts of man.

I will laugh at the world! Never will I allow myself to become so important, so wise, so dignified, so powerful, that I forget how to laugh at myself and my world. And so long as I can Laugh never will I be poor.

So long as there is breath in me, that long I will persist. For now I know one of the greatest principles on success; if I persist long enough I will win.
