A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step. Lao Tzu |
Habits change into character. Ovid |
Success is not something that can be measured or worn on a watch or hung on the wall. It is not the esteem of colleagues, or the admiration of the community. Success is the certain knowledge that you have become yourself, the person you were meant to be from all time. That should be reward enough. Dr. George Sheehan |
It is difficulties that show what people are. Epictus |
Every problem contains within itself the seeds of its own solution. Arnold |
Who said it could not be done? And what great victories has he to his credit which qualify him to judge others accurately? Napoleon Hill |
Anyone can carry his burden, however hard, until nightfall. Anyone can do his work, however hard, for one day. Anyone can live sweetly, patiently, loving purely, till the sun goes down. And this is all life really means. Robert Louis Stevenson |
Daring ideas are like chessmen moved forward; they may be beaten, but they may start a winning game. Goethe |
The mind is like a clock that is constantly running down; it has to be wound up daily with good thoughts. Bishop Fulton Sheen |
Nothing great was achieved without enthusiasm. Ralph Waldo Emerson |
We should all be concerned about the future because we will have to spend the rest of our lives there. Charles Kettering |

Most problems are really the absence of ideas. |
Thinking is the hardest work of all - and that is why so few of us do it. |
Don't let what you don't have stop you from using what you do have. |
No one can make you look inferior without your consent. |
Sometimes, when you are trying to solve problems, you have to get back to basics, to the essentials, to the beginning. |
To achieve what you set our sights on -- that is winning! That is success! |
You have the power to choose self-esteem and self-confidence. You have the power to choose your attitudes, your goals in life and your motivation. Haydn Sargent |
