Never…

Never has man reached his destination by persistence in deviation from the straight path

 Mahatma Gandhi

A man…

A man of personality can formulate ideals, but only a man of character can achieve them

– Herbert Read

Don’t just…

Don’t Just

Don’t just learn, experience.
Don’t just read, absorb.
Don’t just change, transform.
Don’t just relate, advocate.
Don’t just promise, prove.
Don’t just criticize, encourage.
Don’t just think, ponder.
Don’t just take, give.
Don’t just see, feel.
Don’t just dream, do.
Don’t just hear, listen.
Don’t just talk, act.
Don’t just tell, show.
Don’t just exist, live.

– Roy T. Bennett

Believe…

Believe in yourself and all that you are. Know that there is something inside you that is greater than any obstacle

– Christian D Larson

Nothing…

Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less

– Marie Curie

Hard work…

Hard work spotlights the character of people: some turn up their sleeves, some turn up their noses and some don’t turn up at all

– Sam Ewing

Procrastination…

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 will’ philosophy

– Denis Waitley

On…

On the mountains of truth you can never climb in vain: either you will reach a point higher up today, or you will be training your powers so that you will be able to climb higher tomorrow.

– Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

Resilience…

Resilience arises out of a belief in one’s own self-efficacy, the ability to deal with change and use of a repertoire of problem solving skills

– Brigid Gillespie

You…

You have not lived today until you have done something for someone who can never repay you

– John Bunyon
