Meaning is found not in the rewards, for they are only tokens. Seek not to have the gold medal. Instead, seek to be the person who can win the gold medal. It is in the quest that you'll find the fulfillment which the reward represents.

If you focus on the obstacles, then you give them more power. Instead focus on your purpose, on your most authentic and fundamental intentions.

Your level of achievement will rise to meet the level of your purpose.

Every day is a day to be thankful. Life's abundance has no limit, and gratitude is what keeps that abundance flowing. In every circumstance there is something for which to be thankful. Even when there seems to be nothing else, there is hope.

The sooner you act, the bigger difference you can make.

It's difficult to follow your dream. It's a tragedy not to.

Expect the best of yourself, and then do what is necessary to make it a reality.
