All one needs to do is read – books, magazines, research the Internet – and pay attention to the influencers in their lives to discover the myriad people of strong moral character who have and still are making positive, meaningful contributions and differences in our world.

Success occurs when opportunity meets preparation.

With integrity, you have nothing to fear, since you have nothing to hide. With integrity, you will do the right thing, so you will have no guilt.

Success must never be measured by how much money you have.

The great majority of people are wandering generalities rather than meaningful specifics. The fact is that you can’t hit a target that you can’t see. If you don’t know where you are going, you will probably end up somewhere else. You have to have goals.

Don’t let mistakes and disappointments of the past control and direct your future.

Once the game is over, the King and the pawn go back in the same box.

Your income rarely exceeds your personal development.

Success is the ability to go from failure to failure without losing your enthusiasm.

Dream as if you’ll live forever. Live as if you’ll die today.

Ability can take you to the top, but it takes character to keep you there.

Make today worth remembering.

Dream big and kick ass.

If you go looking for a friend, you’re going to find they’re very scarce. If you go out to be a friend, you’ll find them everywhere.

The more you prospect, the more you prosper.

Where there’s a will, there’s a way.

No matter where you are in life, you’ll save a lot of time by not worrying too much about what other people think about you. The earlier in your life that you can learn that, the easier the rest of it will be.

For all the hard times and tough challenges I faced during different periods of my life, I think I was lucky or blessed or both. When things looked bleak, a good guide would appear to set me straight. Someone once asked me about the villains who got in my way, the bad guys who wanted to trip me up or take me out. I don’t remember any. Maybe it’s my nature to remember the good and forget the bad, or maybe it’s my destiny to lock onto the righteous for help.

If I have seen farther than others, it is because I was standing on the shoulders of giants.

I’m open and ready to go to the next place, the next level, the next height.

Repetition is the mother of learning, the father of action, which makes it the architect of accomplishment.
