Stay In The Game If You Want To Win

The law of averages is on your side. The more you try, the greater your chance of succeeding.
Taking a risk is often your first necessary step toward success. If you don't take some risks, you won't get the chance to succeed.
While you are trying, you are winning. Never get discouraged. Every wrong attempt is another step forward.
People that make no mistakes usually don't make anything.
Make up your mind not merely to overcome a thousand obstacles, but to win in spite of a thousand defeats.
Your mistakes are stepping stones to success and your installment payments to victory.
You can't be a winner and be afraid to lose.

Successful People Are Dreamers

Your dreams are your visions of where you'll be after the battle, your prize at the end of your journey to success. Your goals are the steps you take to finally attain your prize.

Unless you're willing to work hard and establish some discipline in your life, all of your dreams will be pipe dreams, little mental fantasy trips that will never materialize.

Make concrete steps toward fulfilling your ultimate dream,
and start with solid objectives called goals. Your dreams are where you want to go, your goals are how you get there.

The first indispensable step to getting the things you want out of life is this. Decide what you want.

Don't be afraid to think big and dare to be great. Dreamers are not content with mediocrity. They never dream of going half way.

People with goals succeed because they know where they're going.

You Are Your Environment

Always be mindful that you're a product of your environment.
So choose an environment that will best develop you toward your objective.
Analyze your life in terms of your environment.
Are the things around you helping you toward your success, or are they holding you back?
The first step toward getting somewhere is to decide that you're not going to stay where you are. You're not a captive of your environment.
If you don't like where you are, you can make some changes. You're not planted permanently in the ground like a tree. Don't say, 'You would, if you could,' start saying, 'You will, because you can.'
When you become a part of anything it becomes a part of you.

Accept Change With A Smile

Sooner or later you'll experience a crisis in your life,
and how you meet it will determine your future happiness and success.
Since the beginning of time,
everyone has been called upon to meet such a crisis.

A closer look will show you that most 'crisis situations'
are opportunities to either advance or stay where you are.
In fact, most changes in your life will take place out of either
'inspiration' or 'desperation.'

Whatever comes your way,
give it meaning and transform it into something of value.
Your personal growth is the process of responding positively to change.

A precious stone cannot be polished without friction,
nor humanity perfected without trials.

Mountains Are Climbed One Step At A Time

Everyone who got where they are had to begin where they were. Your opportunity for success is right in front of you.

To attain success or to reach your goal, don't worry about having all the answers in advance. You just need to have a clear idea of your goal and move toward it.

Don't procrastinate when faced with a difficult problem. Break your problems into parts and handle one part at a time.

Develop a tendency toward action. You can make something happen today. Break your big plan for success into small steps and take the first step right away.

Success starts with a first step.

Your Aspirations Are Your Possibilities

The first ingredient of your success is to dream a great dream.
You must dream big and think big to be big. High expectation always precedes high achievement.
You're as small as your controlling desires, or as great as your dominant aspirations.
Once your mind stretches to a new idea it will never go back to its original dimensions. If you dream of little goals you can expect little achievement.
Dream of big goals and you'll win big success.

You can not have success without dealing with problems.
Look for your opportunity in every difficulty instead of being paralyzedat the thought of difficulty in every opportunity.

Each new experience brings with it the seed of your success. Even your current difficulties have within them opportunity.

Welcome your problems as opportunities. Each moment is your greatest challenge and the best thing that ever happened to you.

The more difficult your problem, the greater the challenge
in working it out.

When it's dark enough, you can see the stars.

Happiness lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort. The human spirit needs to accomplish, to achieve, to triumph to be happy.
Happiness does not come from doing easy work. but from the afterglow of satisfaction that comes after the achievement of a difficult task that demands your best.
Your personal growth itself contains the seed of happiness. You cannot pursue happiness by itself. There is no happiness except in the realization that you have accomplished something.
Happiness thrives in activity. It's a running river, not a stagnant pond.

Success Is Closer Than You Think

Every situation, properly perceived, becomes an opportunity. But you have to act on them if you're going to be successful.

Distant pastures always look greener than those close at hand, but real opportunities are right where you are.
You must simply take advantage of them when they appear. You can start where you are at any time.
Success is all around you. It's not in your environment,
it's not in luck or chance, or in the help of others.
Success is in yourself alone.
You don't need more strength or more ability or greater opportunity. What you need is to use what you have.
Learn to seize good fortune, for it is always around you.
You must go to success, it doesn't come to you.
Open your own doors to opportunity.

It's Possible To Live Your Dreams

Your mind is your mental workshop. You can build anything
you want in it.

Visualize what you want in your mind. See it, feel it, taste it, and believe in it. Make your
mental blueprint and then begin build.

First, think about what you want out of life. The beginning always takes place in your imagination.
Then organize your thoughts into definitive plans.

Next, it's time to transform your thoughts into reality by taking some positive action.
Visualize, then actualize your success.

You Always Have Enough Time

Your dilemma goes deeper than having a shortage of time,
it's basically a problem of priorities.


Most people leave undone those things that should be done, while they do things that they shouldn't be doing.


Set priorities for your goals.

A major part of successful living lies in your ability to put first things first. Most major goals are not achieved because people put second things first.

Is what your doing getting you closer to your objectives?
Anything that is wasted effort represents wasted time.

Don't serve time, make time serve you.

Your Success In Any Occupation Depends On Your Enjoyment

Loving your work makes the difference.
If you enjoy what you do, you'll be successful.
If you don't enjoy what you do, you won't be successful.
Your chances for success are directly proportional
to the degree of pleasure you derive from what you do.
If you have a job you hate, face the fact squarely and get out. You'll never achieve real success unless you like what you are doing.
Success in its highest and noblest form calls for peace of mind, enjoyment, and happiness which comes only when you find the work that you like best.
You don't pay the price for success. You enjoy the price for success.
Work is love made visible.

What will your attitude will be?

Your attitude is not determined by circumstances, but by how you respond to your circumstances. You can respond positively or negatively to any situation.

It's how you react to events, not the events themselves, that determines your attitude.

Any challenge facing you is not as important as your attitude towards it, for that will determine your success or failure.

Live And Act In A Spirit Of Love

The place to begin to improve the world is in your own heart, head and hands.
To get along with others, love them without forcing your love upon them.

Imposing your beliefs on people will not bring you peace.
Have concern for others,
respect their rights and freedoms,
and let them be themselves. Do this and you will enjoy peace.

Having consideration for others is the basis of a good life.
Most people are not against you, they are merely for themselves.
Let differing ideas clash, but not those of the heart.

Peace comes to you when you live and act in a spirit of love.

Don't Believe In Miracles Depend On Them

You don't need an explanation for everything.

Recognize that there are such things as miracles, events for which there are no explanations. Later, knowledge may explain those events away.

The fact that you plant a seed and it becomes a flower, share a bit of knowledge
and it becomes another's, smile at someone and receive a smile in return are common miracles.

Your duty to yourself is to believe that for which you have sufficient evidence, and to suspend your judgement when you have not.

Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
Some things have to be believed to be seen.

Vision is the art of seeing invisible things

Success Is Actually A State Of Mind

Everything is possible when you believe it's possible.
What you envision you can do, you can do.

What your mind can conceive and believe, your
mind can achieve.

Your mind sets your limits.
Start thinking of yourself as a success.

Know in your heart that you can do the job you've
set out to do.

Believe in yourself.
If you think you can, you can.

YOU HAVE TO THINK BIG

High achievement always takes place in the
framework of high expectation.

You'll always hit what you aim for in the long run.
So why not aim high?
Have the courage to follow your dreams.
It's the first step towards attaining your destiny.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
If you don't have a dream, how are you going to
make it come true?
The empire of your future resides in your mind.
Big thinking precedes big achievement.
