“Finish each day and be done with it…You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it well and serenely.” -Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Those who are fired with an enthusiastic idea and who allow it to take hold and dominate their thoughts find that new worlds open for them. As long as enthusiasm holds out, so will new opportunities.” -Norman Vincent Peale
“Flash powder makes a more brilliant light than the arc lamp, but you can’t use it to light your street corner because it doesn’t last long enough. Stability is more essential to success than brilliancy.”
Whatever your discipline, become a student of excellence in all things. Take every opportunity to observe people who manifest the qualities of mastery. These models of excellence will inspire you and guide you toward the fulfillment of your highest potential.
-Michael Gelb and Tony Buzan
“Deliver me from all evildoers that talk nothing but sickness and failure.
Grant me the companionship of men who think success and men who work for it.
Loan me associates who cheerfully face the problems of a day and try hard to overcome them.
Relieve me of all cynics and critics.
Give me good health and the strength to be of real serviceto the world, and I’ll get all that’s good for me, and will what’s left to those who want it.”
