You can resolve to live your life with integrity. Let your credo be this: Let the lie come into the world, let it even triumph. But not through me.
Never hope for it more than you work for it.
A strong man cannot help a weaker unless the weaker is willing to be helped, and even then the weak man must become strong of himself; he must, by his own efforts, develop the strength which he admires in another. None but himself can alter his condition.
Leave it better than you found it.
Be proud of your choices, not your gifts.
There’s a difference between interest and commitment. When you’re interested in doing something, you do it only when it’s convenient. When you’re committed to something, you accept no excuses – only results.
If you want extraordinary results you must put in extraordinary effort.
Greatness is not a function of circumstance. Greatness, it turns out, is largely a matter of conscious choice, and discipline.
The first step towards getting somewhere is to decide that you are not going to stay where you are.
Effort and hard work construct the bridge that connects your dreams to reality.
By constant self-discipline and self-control you can develop greatness of character.
Effort is between you and you.
This is your life and the clock is ticking.
Don’t waste your time; it is too short, valuable, and irreplaceable.
Debt is dumb. Cash is king.
You must gain control over your money or the lack of it will forever control you.
Have patience with all things, but chiefly have patience with yourself. Do not lose courage in considering your own imperfections but instantly set about remedying them – every day begin the task anew.
You never want to fail because you didn’t work hard enough.
Now, if you know what you’re worth, then go out and get what you’re worth.
Time is a precious thing. Never waste it.
