If we are growing, we are always going to be outside our comfort zone.
Focus on making yourself better, not on thinking that you are better.
Every day you may make progress. Every step may be fruitful. Yet there will stretch out before you an ever-lengthening, ever-ascending, ever-improving path. You know you will never get to the end of the journey. But this, so far from discouraging, only adds to the joy and glory of the climb.
You’ll never reach perfection because there’s always room for improvement. Yet, along the way to perfection, you’ll learn to get better.
Don’t go through life; grow through life.
Are you paralyzed with fear? That’s a good sign. Fear is good. Like self-doubt, fear is an indicator. Fear tells us what we have to do. Remember one rule of thumb: the more scared we are of a work or calling, the more sure we can be that we have to do it.
Life is a series of experiences, each of which makes us bigger, even though it is hard to realize this. For the world was built to develop character, and we must learn that the setbacks and griefs which we endure help us in our marching onward.
I don’t believe you have to be better than everybody else. I believe you have to be better than you ever thought you could be.

Learning is the beginning of wealth. Learning is the beginning of health. Learning is the beginning of spirituality. Searching and learning is where the miracle process all begins.
Difficulties are meant to rouse, not discourage. The human spirit is to grow strong by conflict.
You can’t let your failures define you. You have to let your failures teach you.
The great breakthrough in your life comes when you realize that you can learn anything you need to learn to accomplish any goal that you set for yourself. This means there are no limits on what you can be, have or do.
When you develop yourself to the point where your belief in yourself is so strong that you know that you can accomplish anything you put your mind to, your future will be unlimited.
Continually push yourself out of your comfort zone. Push yourself to stretch as you try new things each day.
Welcome the challenges. Look for the opportunities in every situation to learn and grow in wisdom.
All skills are learnable.
View life as a continuous learning experience.
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.
The only limits on human achievement are self-imposed.
