Don't take the attitude of waiting for people to be nice to you - be nice to them. Don't sit in front of a cold stove waiting for the heat. Put in the fuel. Act first.

To become successful and outstanding at something, we don't have to come up with something new; we need only find ways of doing it better.

Most people tiptoe their way through life, hoping they make it safely to death.

We are all creatures of habit. We can do most things without even thinking about them; our bodies take charge and do them for us.

Everything begins with an idea.

You are now, and you do become, what you think about.

Most very successful people can remember that their success was discovered and built out of adversity of some kind. It's not the problems that beset us-problems are surprisingly pretty much the same for millions of others-it's how we react to problems that determines not only our degree of growth and maturity but our future success-and, perhaps, much of our health.
