One of the most common causes of failure is the habit of quitting when one is overtaken by temporary defeat.

If you do not conquer self, you will be conquered by self.

One must realize that all who have accumulated great fortunes first did a certain amount of dreaming, hoping, wishing, desiring, and planning before they acquired money.

When your desires are strong enough you will appear to possess superhuman powers to achieve.

Persistence is the direct result of habit. The mind absorbs and becomes a part of the daily experiences upon which it feeds. Fear, the worst of all enemies, can be effectively cured by forced repetition of acts of courage.

Taking possession of your positive self will put you on the success beam that you may ride triumphantly to whatever heights of achievement you desire.

If the first plan which you adopt does not work successfully, replace it with a new plan; if this new plan fails to work, replace it in turn with still another, and so on, until you find a plan which does work. Right here is the point at which the majority of men meet with failure, because of their lack of persistence in creating new plans to take the place of those which fail.
