A life filled with opportunities and encouragement finds more and more opportunities and encouragement, and success becomes inevitable.

To be great at whatever it is that you do, it's going to take some discipline to separate yourself from the average.

While it is true that most people never see or understand the difference they make, or sometimes only imagine their actions having a tiny effect, every single action a person takes has far-reaching consequences.

We think in our society today that the way people change is that they have to have a deep desire to change or that the way they change is they have to hit rock bottom. But neither of those things is true.

We all can think of at least one kid who had great parents, a great family, and an all-around great childhood...who suddenly went crazy as soon as he left the house for college or adulthood. And nobody can figure out how or why it happened!

It's also a lot easier to convince people to read an entertaining story than any other type of book!

Everything you do matters to all of us forever.
