It happens in its own time.""Change the changeable, accept the unchangeable, and remove yourself from the unacceptable.""Chase your passion, not your pension.""Courage means to keep working a relationship, to continue seeking solutions to difficult problems, and to stay focused during stressful periods.""Determination gives you the resolve to keep going in spite of the roadblocks that lay before you.""Don't be a time manager, be a priority manager. Cut your major goals into bite-sized pieces. Each small priority or requirement on the way to ultimate goal become a mini goal in itself.""Don't dwell on what went wrong. Instead, focus on what to do next. Spend your energies on moving forward toward finding the answer.""Everything is something you decide to do, and there is nothing you have to do.""Expect the best, plan for the worst, and prepare to be surprised.""Failure should be our teacher, not our undertaker. Failure is delay, not defeat. It is a temporary detour, not a dead end. Failure is something we can avoid only by saying nothing, doing nothing, and being nothing.""Forget about the consequences of failure. Failure is only a temporary change in direction to set you straight for your next success.""Get excited and enthusiastic about you own dream. This excitement is like a forest fire - you can smell it, taste it, and see it from a mile away.""Goals provide the energy source that powers our lives. One of the best ways we can get the most from the energy we have is to focus it. That is what goals can do for us; concentrate our energy.""Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed.

If you believe you won't, you most assuredly won't.

There is only one big risk you should avoid at all costs, and that is the risk of doing nothing.""Life is not accountable to us. We are accountable to life.""Life is the movie you see through your own eyes. It makes little difference what's happening out there.

Winners make commitments they always keep.""Mistakes are painful when they happen, but years later a collection of mistakes is what is called experience.""Never become so much of an expert that you stop gaining expertise.

The winner's edge is all in the attitude, not aptitude. Attitude is the criterion for success.""The winners in life think constantly in terms of I can, I will, and I am. Losers, on the other hand, concentrate their waking thoughts on what they should have or would have done, or what they can't do.""The winners in life treat their body as if it were a magnificent spacecraft that gives them the finest transportation and endurance for their lives.""There are no mistakes or failures, only lessons.""There are two primary choices in life: to accept conditions as they exist, or accept the responsibility for changing them.""Time and health are two precious assets that we don't recognize and appreciate until they have been depleted.""Time is the most precious element of human existence.
