Only when you combine sound intellect with emotional discipline do you get rational behavior.

You just do it. You force yourself to get up. You force yourself to put one foot in front of the other, and God damn it, you refuse to let it get to you. You fight. You cry. You curse. Then you go about the business of living. That’s how I’ve done it. There’s no other way.

If you eat a frog first thing in the morning, the rest of your day will be wonderful.

There are no speed limits on the road to success.

When I thought I couldn’t go on, I forced myself to keep going. My success is based on persistence, not luck.

Take action. Every story you’ve ever connected with, every leader you’ve ever admired, every puny little thing that you’ve ever accomplished is the result of taking action. You have a choice. You can either be a passive victim of circumstance or you can be the active hero of your own life.

A genius! For 37 years I’ve practised fourteen hours a day, and now they call me a genius!

You will have failures in your life, but it is what you do during those valleys that will determine the heights of your peaks.

Most good ideas sparkle in simplicity, so much so that everyone wonders why no one ever did that before.

Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do.

Practice doesn’t make perfect. Perfect practice makes perfect.

People do make their luck by daring to follow their instincts, taking risks and embracing every possibility.
