Become one of the rare people who don't know how to quit.
Truly enlightened people never seek to be like others. Rather, they seek to be superior to their former selves.
Model the behavior you wish more people would display. Lead first.
The best way to honor your dreams is to get them done!
If you don't act on life, life has a habit of acting on you. You can't have all that you want if you remain the person you are. To get more from life, you need to be more in life.
Remember, there are no real failures in life, only results. There are no true tragedies, only lessons. And there are no problems, only opportunities waiting to be recognized as solutions by the person of wisdom.
