Time is the only commodity we deal with which cannot be counterfeited, stolen or placed in inventory. Remember, time is irreplaceable.
When you forgive somebody else you accept the responsibility for your own future.
Faith is your reaction to God’s ability.
The solution is to change from the negative to the positive and one way to do that is to remember that failure is an event – it is not a person. Another way is to understand that your child might make a mistake, but the child is not a mistake.
The child who has not been disciplined with love by his little world will be disciplined, generally without love, by the big world.
Nobody on the face of the earth can make you feel inferior without your permission.
We need to understand the difference between discipline and punishment. Punishment is what you do to someone; discipline is what you do for someone.
Far too many people make promises they can never keep. They may have the best intentions in the world to keep their promise-but if they have not made a plan to keep it, they will not be able to do it.
Negative thinkers always have a negative vision.
People who accomplish great things work toward their objectives every day.
The person who dumps garbage into your mind will do you considerably more harm than the person who dumps garbage on your floor, because each load of mind garbage negatively impacts your possibilities and lowers your expectations.
All you need to find and accomplish God’s purpose in your life is God’s permission and approval – not anyone else’s. When you get in step with Him, there will be a glow on your face that will make people wonder what you’re up to.
Nothing is more inspiring than a person with seemingly mediocre talent rising against the odds to become a champion by way of hard work, effort, and perseverance toward their goals.
You might occasionally feel that some people are standing in the way and slowing your progress, but in reality the biggest person standing in your way is you. Others can stop you temporarily – you are the only one who can do it permanently.
Every person has unique gifts, and those gifts give him or her the power and the opportunity to accomplish great things, if he or she learns how to use those gifts and channel them in the right direction.
Obviously, raw talent is important, but the difference-maker between first and the rest of the pack is usually desire.
As you head toward your goals, be prepared to make some slight adjustments to your course. You don’t change your decision to go – you do change your direction to get there.
My core philosophy on winning and motivation is summed up by saying that you were born to win, but in order to be the winner you were born to be, you have to plan to win and prepare to win before you can expect to win.
Once you learn to do something consciously, you can move it into the subconscious and do it well. Everything you do well will be done subconsciously.
People who truly understand God’s purpose for their lives know that we are called to be intimately involved with one another.
