One of the biggest threats to success is success itself. When you get a little bit ahead, it’s all too easy to become complacent and to quickly lose what you have gained.
Give your best to the challenges. And what you get will be even better.
Your life is constantly nourished by your thoughts. Whatever the direction your life is moving, your thoughts have led you there.
Every moment you spend thinking about the bad stuff pushes that much more of the good stuff away.
Success requires both urgency and patience. Be urgent about making the effort, and patient about seeing the results.
When you can clearly see yourself being there, you can see much more clearly how to get there. You can imagine the path to your dreams, and then start to actually walk it. Play an active role in your own future. Imagine with passion and detail how you’d most like it to be.
Imagine the possibilities!
Almost everyone does just enough to get by. Those who achieve spectacular success also do enough to get by; then they add a little bit of extra effort. That little bit of extra effort makes an enormous difference.
In every kind of endeavor, there are ample opportunities for extra effort. Grab those opportunities, embrace that extra effort and transform ordinary mediocrity into bright and shining excellence.
Truly appreciate those around you, and you’ll soon find many others around you.
When you’ve done all you can, do just a little bit more. Any extra effort you make will draw immense leverage from all the ordinary efforts which have preceded it. That can be powerful and effective.
Your level of achievement will rise to meet the level of your purpose.
No matter what the situation may be, there is always something positive you can do about it.
What has happened has happened and it is now behind you. Take the best of it all as you move positively forward.
Procrastinating, fighting and avoiding will only make it more difficult. The way out is to get it done.
Just as surely as you can create a thought in your mind, you can create this day in the way you choose.
The strongest leaders do not command, they empower.
Allow love to fill the places where anxiety now resides.
Prepare far enough in advance, and just about anything is possible.
Spread the seeds of encouragement far and wide, and delight in the bountiful harvest that they will surely bring.
You are full of wonderful possibilities. Do something with them. The most painful regrets, those which never go away, are regrets of things not done, things never attempted.
