" My philosophy of life is that if we make up our mind what we are going to make of our lives, then work hard toward that goal, we never lose - somehow we win out. "

Denis Watley ~

" The reason most people never reach their goals is that they don't define them, or ever seriously consider them as believable or achievable. Winners can tell you where they are going, what they plan to do along the way, and who will be sharing the adventure with them. "

Milan Kundera ~

" Anyone whose goal is something higher must expect someday to suffer vertigo. What is vertigo? Fear of falling? No, Vertigo is something other than fear of falling. It is the voice of the emptiness below us which tempts and lures us, it is the desire to fall, against which terrified, we defend ourselves. "

E. O. Wilson ~

" You are capable of more than you know. Choose a goal that seems right for you and strive to be the best, however hard the path. Aim High. Behave honorable. Prepare to be alone at times, and to endure failure. Persist! The world needs all you can give. "

Mark Twain ~

" Do something everyday that you don't want to do; this is the golden rule for acquiring the habit of doing your duty without pain."

Og Mandino ~

" Always do your best. What you plant now, you will harvest later. "

 Jim Rohn ~

" If you don't design your own life plan, chances are you'll fall into someone else's plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much. "

Colin Powell ~

" There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure. "

Brian Tracy ~

" Between you and every goal that you wish to achieve, there is a series of obstacles, and the bigger the goal, the bigger the obstacles. Your decision to be, have and do something out of the ordinary entails facing difficulties and challenges that are out of the ordinary as well. Sometimes your greatest asset is simply your ability to stay with it longer than anyone else. "

Confucius ~

" Our greatest glory is not in never falling but in rising every time we fall. "

Gandhi ~

" If I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning. "

J. Johnson ~


 " The greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do. In your lifetime there will be those who may never believe in you. What hurts the most is these same people are the people who may desire to be proud of you, those who you look up to and who you seek approval from. Sometimes the people who don't believe in you will be people you don't even know, just looking for some to criticize. Whatever the case may be, it is important to note that not everyone will agree with the things that you are doing. 

       People will exercise their opinions and try to discourage you from doing the things that you know that you are capable of in your heart and mind. Just as this quote says, receive pleasure in doing the things that people say you cannot do. Prove those that doubt you wrong, use a strong resolve and a massive amount of determination to not only achieve, but to conquer your goals, and the realization of your dreams. "

Robert Louis Stevenson ~

Most of our pocket wisdom is conceived for the use of mediocre people, to discourage them from ambitious attempts, and generally console them in their mediocrity. "

Bob Schieffer ~

" The truth is the Super Bowl long ago became more than just a football game. It's part of our culture like turkey at Thanksgiving and lights at Christmas, and like those holidays beyond their meaning, a factor in our economy. "

Marcus Tullius Cicero ~

" A man of courage is also full of faith. "

Sandra Bullock ~

" Beginnings are usually scary and endings are usually sad, but it's everything in between that makes it all worth living. "
