David W. Johnson

Don’t let life discourage you; everyone who got where he is had to begin where he was.

The reason most people never reach their goals is that they don’t define them, or ever seriously consider them as believable or achievable. Winners can tell you where they are going, what they plan to do along the way, and who will be sharing the adventure with them.

The most important persuasion tool you have in your entire arsenal is integrity.

Talent is formed in solitude, character in the bustle of the world.

Be happy with what you have while working for what you want.

Excessive fear and self-doubt that were the greatest detractors of personal genius.

Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough; we must do.

Procastination is not about not doing is about not doing and feeling crappy.

If we did all the things we are capable of, we would literally astound ourselves.

Think of yourself as on the threshold of unparalleled success. A whole, clear, glorious life lies before you. Achieve! Achieve!

What you can do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it.

Yesterday ended last night. Today is a brand-new day.

Most people consider me an optimist because I laughingly state that I would take my last two dollars and buy a money belt.

Have the courage to be ignorant of a great number of things, in order to avoid the calamity of being ignorant of everything.

In the game of life, before you get anything out, you must put something in!
