It’s not about what it is, it’s about what it can become.
Surely, in the light of history, it is more intelligent to hope rather than to fear, to try rather than not to try. For one thing we know beyond all doubt: nothing has ever been achieved by the person who says: it can’t be done.
Do not let anyone tell you what you can be. Do not let anyone tell you that you are not good enough or smart enough. Remember that nobody is better than you. Everybody puts on their pants one leg at a time.
You have not failed until you quit trying.
Don’t say, “If I could, I would.” Say, “If I can, I will.”
Don’t join an easy crowd; you won’t grow. Go where the expectations and the demands to perform are high.
It is not what happens that determines the major part of your future. What happens, happens to us all. It is what you do about what happens that counts.
I used to say, “I sure hope things will change.” Then I learned that the only way things are going to change for me is when I change.
If you go to work on your goals, your goals will go to work on you. If you go to work on your plan, your plan will go to work on you. Whatever good things we build end up building us.
Don’t get stuck where you are, keep growing. It’s a decision you have to make because it is easy to get stuck. Make a decision to develop better habits, to have better relationships and just to keep the enthusiasm for life.
If I accept you as you are, I will make you worse; however, if I treat you as though you are what you are capable of becoming, I help you become that.
Your life today is a result of your thinking yesterday. Your life tomorrow will be determined by what you think today.
The more you do, the more you fail. The more you fail, the more you learn. The more you learn, the better you get.
If you focus on goals, you may hit goals – but that doesn’t guarantee growth. If you focus on growth, you will grow and always hit goals.
Successful people don’t have any fewer problems than unsuccessful people; they just have a different mindset in dealing with them.
The difference between where we are and where we want to be is created by the changes we are willing to make in our lives. When you want something you’ve never had, you must do something you’ve never done to get it.
Make personal growth a daily priority.
You can change your life if you really want to. You can improve it, make it better. And it all starts with changing the way you think.
Any day that we don’t give up puts us one day closer to success!
Don’t try to rush progress. Remember – a step forward, no matter how small, is a step in the right direction. Keep believing.
