The major reason for setting a goal is for what it makes of you to accomplish it. What it makes of you will always be the far greater value than what you get.

Somebody said you have to love what you do, but that's not necessarily true. What is true is that you have to love the opportunity. The opportunity to build life, future, health, success and fortune. Knocking on someone's door or making that extra call may not be something you love to do, but you love the opportunity of what might be behind that door or call.

All values must be won by contest, and after they have been won, they must be defended.

If you do something often enough, a ratio will appear

It's easy to carry the past as a burden instead of a school. It's easy to let it overwhelm you instead of educate you.

Give whatever you are doing and whoever you are with the gift of your attention.

Adopt the attitude that everything is negotiable. A world of opportunity will greet you.
