Every event has a purpose and every setback its lesson. I have realized that failure, whether of the personal, professional or even spiritual kind, is essential to personal expansion. It brings inner growth and a whole host of psychic rewards. Never regret your past. Rather, embrace it as the teacher that it is.

If it is not a mess, it is not progress.

Cut your excuses in half and double your actions around your goals.

I recall a friend telling me that for all the years his mother worked, every clock in her home was set 30 minutes ahead. She was never late. And she was beloved by all. Punctuality matters. Shows respect for others. And excellence within yourself. Be great today. Please.

The less you are like others, the less others will like you.

Laughter opens your heart and soothes your soul. No one should ever take life so seriously that they forget to laugh at themselves.

To have everything you want, help as many people as you can possibly find get everything they want.
