It is only through labour and painful effort, by grim energy and resolute courage; that we move on to better things.

What separates the winners from the losers is how a person reacts to each new twist of fate.

Vision is the art of seeing things that are not yet visible.

The coward dies a thousand deaths, the brave man…only five hundred.

When you start doing what you love to do, you will never work another day in your life.

The men who succeed are the efficient few. They are the few who have the ambition and will power to develop themselves.

The starting point of all achievement is desire. Keep this constantly in mind. Weak desire brings weak results, just as a small amount of Are makes a small amount of heat.

A plan is always successful if the plan is good.

No one lives long enough to learn everything they need to learn starting from scratch. To be successful, we absolutely, positively have to find people who have already paid the price to learn the things that we need to learn to achieve our goals.
