Good habits are the key to all success. Bad habits are the unlocked door to failure.

I shall live this day as if it is my last. And if it is not, I shall fall to my knees and give thanks.

There is an immeasurable distance between late and too late.

If I must be a slave to habit let me be a slave to good habits.

Let your first hour set the theme of success and positive action that is certain to echo through your entire day. Today will never happen again.

Never allow anyone to rain on your parade and thus cast a pall of gloom and defeat on the entire day. Remember that no talent, no self-denial, no brains, no character, are required to set up in the fault-finding business. Nothing external can have any power over you unless you permit it. Your time is too precious to be sacrificed in wasted days combating the menial forces of hate, jealously, and envy. Guard your fragile life carefully. Only God can shape a flower, but any foolish child can pull it to pieces.

The wind is never for the sailor who knows not to what port he is bound.
