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.

I've come to believe that all my past failure and frustration were actually laying the foundation for the understandings that have created the new level of living I now enjoy.

Knowledge is NOT power. Knowledge is only POTENTIAL power. Action is power.

If your life's worth living, it's worth recording.

Take control of your consistent emotions and begin to consciously and deliberately reshape your daily experience of life.

Make your life a masterpiece: Step beyond the demands of the moment and begin right now to design and live the life you deserve.

Any Idiot can point out a problem .... A leader is willing to do something about it! Leaders solve problems!
