Extraordinary magic is woven through ordinary life. Look around!

I was taught that the way of progress is neither swift nor easy.

The greatest lesson of life is that you are responsible for your life.

When you affirm big, believe big and pray big, putting faith into action, big things happen.

Create a definite plan for carrying out your desire, and begin at once, whether you’re ready or not, to put it into action.

Until you commit your goals to paper, you have intentions that are seeds without soil.

If you want to leave your footprints on the sands of time, be sure you’re wearing work shoes.

Great hopes make everything great possible.

Determine never to be idle. It is wonderful how much may be done if we are always doing.

Don’t play for safety. It’s the most dangerous thing in the world.

As long as you’re going to be thinking anyway, think big.

Time flies. It’s up to you to be the navigator.

Go as far as you can see; when you get there, you’ll be able to see farther.

A good plan is like a road map: It shows the final destination and usually the best way to get there.

People spend their lives in the service of their passions instead of employing their passions in the service of their lives.

For every disadvantage there is a corresponding advantage.

Sometimes the best helping hand you can get is a good, firm push.

Each man is the architect of his own fortune.

Successful people recognize crisis as a time for change – from lesser to greater, smaller to bigger.

When you dare to dream, dare to follow that dream; dare to suffer through the pain, sacrifice, self-doubts and friction from the world.

You promote yourself every time you take on a new responsibility.

Your greatness is measured by your horizons.

Life without risk is not worth living.

Incorporate daily programs on positive thinking as a counterbalance against the negativity you may encounter in pursuit of your dreams.
