Learn how to grow out of yourself and into the world of others: Plant a shade tree under which you know you will never sit. Set some goals that may benefit your children or an orphanage or the employees of your company or future generations or your own city, fifty years from now.
Real success comes in small portions day by day. You need to take pleasure in life's daily little treasures. It is the most important thing in measuring success.
How you spend your time is far more important than all the material possessions you may own or positions you may attain.
If you don't know where you're going, it doesn't matter if your alarm doesn't go off in the morning.
The reason most people never reach their goals is that they don't define them, learn about them, or even 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.
Don't let negative people determine your self-worth.
You are your own scriptwriter and the play is never finished, no matter what your age or position in life.
Expect the best, plan for the worst, and prepare to be surprised.
First we make our attitudes. Then our attitudes make us.
We sing because we're happy and happy because we sing
If you concentrate on the present, you eliminate what happened yesterday and any apprehension of what may happen tomorrow.
No gift can ever replace the value of being there in person.
SMILE! In every language, in every culture - it is the light in your window that tells people there's a caring, sharing individual inside and it's the universal code for "I'm O. K. - You're O. K., too!"
Time is an equal opportunity employer. Each human being has exactly the same number of hours and minutes every day. Rich people can't buy more hours. Scientists can't invent new minutes. And you can't save time to spend it on another day. Even so, time is amazingly fair and forgiving. No matter how much time you've wasted in the past, you still have an entire tomorrow.
When you visualize, then you materialize. If you've been there in the mind you'll go there in the body
The two greatest fear busters are knowledge and action
The world needs role models, instead of critics.
The essence of life is finding something you really love and then making the daily experience worthwhile.
Procrastination is the fear of success. People procrastinate because they are afraid of the success that they know will result if they move ahead now. Because success is heavy, carries a responsibility with it, it is much easier to procrastinate and live on the "someday I'll" philosophy.
"Knowledge is the frontier of tomorrow."
Losers take chances; winners make choices.
That which you create in beauty and goodness and truth lives on for all time to come. Don't spend your life accumulating material objects that will only turn to dust and ashes.
We've got to have a dream if we are going to make a dream come true.
The secret to productive goal setting is in establishing clearly defined goals, writing them down and then focusing on them several times a day with words, pictures and emotions as if we've already achieved them.
Be a role model not a critic. Don't tell your children, your peers, or your subordinates what to do - show them. And when the lesson is over, keep showing them by demonstrating that your actions are part of your character, not part of their curriculum.
