The dream in your heart may be bigger than the environment in which you find yourself. Sometimes you have to get out of that environment to see that dream fulfilled. It’s like planting an oak sapling in a pot. Once it becomes rootbound, its growth is limited. It needs a great space to become a mighty oak. So do you.

Forget about willpower. It's time for why-power. Your choices are only meaningful when you connect them to your desires and dreams. The wisest and most motivating choices are the ones aligned with that which you identify as your purpose, your core self, and your highest values. You've got to want something, and know why you want it, or you'll end up giving up too easily.

Don't fake it till you make it. Just get busy making it!

There is not the management of time, there is only the management of you.

Everything you need to be great is already inside you. Stop waiting for someone or something to light your fire. You have the match.

You alone are responsible for what you do, don’t do, or how you respond to what’s done to you.

One of the best days of your life can be when you finally say, 'I've had it!' then stand up and fight.
