It’s never crowded along the extra mile.
— How soon ‘not now’ becomes ‘never’.
— I think only about what I can do now. By thinking small, I accomplish great things.
— I don’t know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.
— Failure will never overtake me if my determination to succeed is strong enough.
— You really have to love yourself to get anything done in this world.
— The most powerful weapon on earth is the human soul on fire.
— For true success ask yourself these four questions: Why? Why not? Why not me? Why not now?
— The greatest mistake you can make in life is to be continually fearing you will make a mistake.
— Striving for success without hard work is like trying to harvest where you haven’t planted.
— There is no formula for success except, perhaps, an unconditional acceptance of life and what it brings.
— If you want to achieve widespread impact and lasting value, be bold.
— You choose to act or procrastinate, believe or doubt, help or hinder, succeed or fail.
— A hunch is creativity trying to tell you something.
— A wise man will make more opportunities than he finds.
— When you lose, don’t lose the lesson.
— Formulate and stamp indelibly on your mind a mental picture of yourself as succeeding. Hold this picture tenaciously. Never permit it to fade. Your mind will seek to develop the picture…Do not build up obstacles in your imagination.
— If you are hopeful and determined, you will always find some measure of success. Winning the gold medal does not matter. You will have tried your best.
— I don’t know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody
— Where you stumble, there your treasure lies.
— Any man is liable to err, only a fool persists in error.
— Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, ‘Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?’ Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
— The surest way not to fail is to determine to succeed.
— Remember that sometimes not getting what you want is a wonderful stroke of luck.
— You really have to love yourself to get anything done in this world.
— Failure is the opportunity to begin again, more intelligently.
— Even the smallest victory is never to be taken for granted. Each victory must be applauded.
— It is okay to ask what you can give to yourself. In fact, it’s very okay. Personal ambition, personal happiness, and personal spiritual development stoke the fires of desire, of yearning, and of achievement. They are the cornerstones of evolution.
— You don’t learn from a situation where you do something well. You enjoy it and give yourself credit, but you don’t really learn from that. You learn from trial and error, trial and error all the time.
— Paralyze resistance with persistence.
— The brick walls in your way aren’t there to keep you out. They’re there to give you a chance to show how much you want it, and to keep out everyone else who doesn’t want it as much as you do.
— Just one mental shift—focusing on the abundance of your environment—switches your psychological settings so that your life automatically improves in many areas you may think are unrelated. This is essentially a leap from fear to faith.
— Mistakes are the portals of discovery.
— Expectations are just leftover praise. They are a blessing. If you didn’t have the capability to meet them, they wouldn’t exist.
— Talk doesn’t cook rice.
— Perpetual optimism is a force multiplier.
— I can accept failure, everyone fails at something. But I can’t accept not trying.
— 1. Start very small. 2. Do only one change at a time. 3. Be present and enjoy the activity (don’t focus on results). 4. Be grateful for every step you take.
— A smooth sea never made a skilled mariner.
— Excellence is not an act but a habit. The things you do the most are the things you will do the best.
— The trouble is, if you don’t risk anything, you risk even more.
— When you lose, don’t lose the lesson.

— If you want to fly, you have to give up the things that weigh you down.
— You will be a failure, until you impress the subconscious with the conviction you are a success. This is done by making an affirmation which “clicks.”
