Small improvements in the way you use your time can translate into major differences in your life.

You perform at your best when you are working continually on high-priority goals and objectives.

In every company which I have done strategic planning, the number-one value people choose is always integrity. The second values may be quality of products and services, caring about people, excellent customer service, profitability , innovation, entrepreneurship, and others.

Knowledge is the raw material of production and value in this age. It used to be that the main difference between people in our society was between those who have more and those who have less. Today, however, the difference is between those who know more and those who know less.

You can accomplish virtually any goal you set for yourself, as long as the goal is clear and you persist long enough.

Self-esteem and self-love are the opposites of fear; the more you like yourself, the less you fear anything.

Your persistence is, in fact, the true measure of your belief in yourself and your ability to succeed. Each time that you persist in the face of adversity and disappointment, you build the habit of persistence.
