Determination and persistence are melded together. Their basis comes from people who stay hungry and don`t allow themselves to get too comfortable. Entering a comfort zone is the fastest way to kill your drive and determination, at which point you begin to accept whatever you have as being "good enough." There is no self-esteem in accepting the status quo. There are tremendous emotional and psychological rewards that come with pushing yourself to break through past limits and, in the process, creating something of value for yourself and others.

The number one key to success in life is to master your own state. If you can manage and master your states, there's nothing you can't do.

If you keep a clear vision for your future, it will pull you like a magnet through your toughest times.

What kind of person will I have to become in order to achieve all that I want?

Life isn't about getting more. It's about becoming more.

At any moment the decision you make can change the course of your life forever.

People will do more to avoid pain than they will do to gain pleasure.
