The victory of success is half won when one gains the habit of setting goals and achieving them.

I will live this day as if it is my last. …I will waste not a moment mourning yesterday’s misfortunes, Yesterday’s defeats, yesterday’s aches of the heart, for why should I throw good after bad?

Choice! The key is choice. You have options. You need not spend your life wallowing in failure, ignorance, grief, poverty, shame, and self-pity. But hold on! If this is true then why have so many among us apparently elected to live in this manner? The answer is obvious. Those who live in unhappy failure have never exercised their options for a better way of life because they have never been aware that had any choices

In truth, the only difference between those who have failed and those who have succeeded lies in the difference of their habits.

A field of clay touched by the genius of man becomes a castle.

If the ingredients for happiness are not within a person, no material success or entertainment or platinum credit cards can make that person smile.
