The easiest thing to find on God's green earth is someone to tell you all the things you cannot do.

I have seen countless people make a choice to be confident. If you don't naturally feel bold and confident, you can choose an attitude of confidence.

Few things in the world are more powerful than a positive push. A smile. A world of optimism and hope. A "you can do it" when things are tough.

You make up your mind before you start that sacrifice is part of the package.

If I had to select one quality, one personal characteristic that I regard as being most highly correlated with success, whatever the field, I would pick the trait of persistence. Determination. The will to endure to the end, to get knocked down seventy times and get up off the floor saying, ''Here comes number seventy-one!''

Money cannot buy peace of mind. It cannot heal ruptured relationships, or build meaning into a life that has none.

If you have a dream, give it a chance to happen.
