Benchmark your performance against your best competitors. Think how you can beat them next time.

Start with a picture of your goal as already achieved in the future, and work back to the present. Imagine the steps that you would have taken to get from where you are now to where you want to be.

One of the most important rules for success is this: Every great success is the result of hundreds and thousands of small efforts and accomplishments that no one sees or appreciates.

Live your life in every way to earn and keep the respect of the people you respect.

Be thankful for all your blessings. An appreciative person makes a pleasant and optimistic person.

The history of the human race is the history of ordinary people who have overcome their fears and accomplished extraordinary things.

Your life only gets better when you get better.
