Done is better than perfect.
Don’t let your fears overwhelm your desire. Let the barriers you face, and there will be barriers, be external, not internal. Fortune does favor the bold, and I promise that you will never know what you’re capable of unless you try.
A world where men ran half our homes and women ran half our institutions would be just a much better world.
There is immense power when a group of people with similar interests gets together to work toward the same goals.
Desire is the starting point of all achievement, not a hope, not a wish, but a keen pulsating desire which transcends everything.
Your future is created by what you do today, not tomorrow.
It is in self-limitation that a master first shows himself.
Failure is the condiment that gives success its flavor.
It is in the ordinary events of every day that we develop the proactive capacity to handle the extraordinary pressures of life. It’s how we make and keep commitments, how we handle a traffic jam, how we respond to an irate customer or a disobedient child. It’s how we view our problems and where we focus our energies. It’s the language we use.
It is thrifty to prepare today for the wants of tomorrow.
I urge people to learn from the mistakes of others.
You can do it all. Don’t ever let anyone limit you. As long as you are authentic to you, do you.
The secret of joy in work is contained in one word: excellence. To know how to do something well is to enjoy it.

You probably wouldn’t worry about what people think of you if you could know how seldom they do.
In my experience, there is only one motivation, and that is desire. No reasons or principle contain it or stand against it.
Just remember, you can’t climb the ladder of success with your hands in your pockets.
The more you are grateful for what you have the more you will have to be grateful for.
