Booker T. Washington

Success is not to be measured by the position someone has reached in life, but the obstacles he has overcome while trying to succeed.

It’s a fact that more people watch television and get their information that way than read books. I find new technology and new ways of communication very exciting and would like to do more in this field.

It is surprinsingly how easy it is to forget that the way to get things done is to do them.

Concentrate your energies, your thoughts and your capital. The wise man puts all his eggs in one basket and watches the basket.

New research shows that you will be dead longer than you will be alive.

I’m wary of what goal I set, because then I’ll have to accomplish it.

The foundation stones for a balanced success are honesty, character, integrity, faith, love and loyalty.

You must see your goals clearly and specifically before you can set out for them. Hold them in your mind until they become second nature.

The successful warrior is the average man, with laser-like focus.

Be open to new information and ideas.

Accountability breeds response-ability.

I have learned that what is essential can sometimes be invisible to the eye. That’s where discernment comes in.

If you are not willing to learn no one can help you. If you are determined to learn no one can stop you.

If people knew how hard I had to work to gain my mastery, it wouldn’t seem so wonderful at all.

Unite to win. Divide to conquer.

It ain’t about how hard you hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward.
