For every disciplined effort there is a multiple reward.
Greed is a bottomless pit which exhausts the person in an endless effort to satisfy the need without ever reaching satisfaction.
I know the price of success: dedication, hard work, and an unremitting devotion to the things you want to see happen.

If you’re going to try, go all the way. There is no other feeling like that. You will be alone with the gods, and the nights will flame with fire. You will ride life straight to perfect laughter. It’s the only good fight there is.

Don’t wait for an employer, friend, or mentor to show appreciation for your work. Take pride in your own efforts on a daily basis.
Personal development is the belief that you are worth the effort, time, and energy needed to develop yourself.
There is a direct relationship between joy and effort. The joy of success is in ratio to the amount of effort expended to achieve it.
Tentative efforts lead to tentative outcome.
