No one is born with self confidence. Self confidence is learned and earned with experience.

Most people spend most of their time on low-priority busywork because it requires no additional knowledge, skills, or imagination-or courage. In a word, it's easier.

Perseverance does not always mean sticking to the same thing forever. It means giving full concentration and effort to whatever you are doing right now.

The winners in life think constantly in terms of I can, I will, and I am.

Time is the ultimate equal opportunity employer.

Don't wait for mentors to seek you out. Don't ever wait for your phone calls to be returned, your letters to be answered, your faxes to be responded to. Keep going out and asking question.

Your attitude is either the lock on, or the key to the door of your success.
