When you make a mistake or get ridiculed or rejected, look at mistakes as learning experiences, and ridicule as ignorance. Look at rejection as part of one performance, not as a turn down of the performer.

When you are able to applaud yourself, it is much easier to applaud others.

Positive self-expectancy is the first, most outwardly identifiable quality of a top-achieving, winning human being. Positive self-expectancy is pure and simple optimism: real enthusiasm for everything you do... [while] expecting the most favorable result from your own actions. There never was a winner who didn't expect to win in advance. Winners understand that life is a self-fulfilling prophecy. And they know that you usually get what you expect in the long run.

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.

Don't be a time manager, be a priority manager.

Winners live each day as if their last. Not in the future, nor in the past, and someday . . . becomes now!

You must be worthy of the best, but not more worthy than the rest.
