Stopping before you reach the goal does not make the discouragement go away. All it does is make the discouragement permanent. Instead, keep going, keep making the attempt, until you make that last, fulfilling attempt that brings the success you desire.

Turn your attention for a while away from the worries and anxieties. Remind yourself of all your many blessings.

If something goes wrong, don’t whine about it. Have a spine about it. Adjust, adapt, and move forward.

Even when there seems to be nothing else, there is hope.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

Beset by a difficult problem? Now is your chance to shine. Pick yourself up, get to work and get triumphantly through it. The time you spend living in fear is time you cannot spend living in love. The time you spend hiding and retreating from life is time you cannot spend growing and advancing and achieving.

Concern yourself more with accepting responsibility than with assigning blame. Let the possibilities inspire you more than the obstacles discourage you.
