Always will I dig for reasons to applaud; never will I scratch for excuses to gossip. When I am tempted to criticize I will bite on my tongue; when I am moved to praise I will shout from the roofs.

The victory of success is half won when one gains the habit of setting goals and achieving them. Even the most tedious chore will become endurable as you parade through each day convinced that every task, no matter how menial or boring, brings you closer to achieving your dreams.

I will work when failures seek rest.

And even if you have failed at all else in the eyes of the world, if you have a loving family, you are a success.

All the gold in the world cannot buy a dying man one more breath--so what does that make today worth?

You are not here to fritter away your precious hours when you have the ability to accomplish so much by making a slight change in your routine.

Always will I dig for reasons to applaud; never will I scratch for excuses to gossip. When I am tempted to criticize I will bite on my tongue; when I am moved to praise I will shout from the roofs.
