Success is buried on the other side of rejection.
People who succeed have momentum. The more they succeed, the more they want to succeed, and the more they find a way to succeed. Similarly, when someone is failing, the tendency is to get on a downward spiral that can even become a self-fulfilling prophecy.
One reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power. Most people dabble their way through life, never deciding to master anything in particular.
It is not what we get. But who we become, what we contribute... that gives meaning to our lives.
Contrary to popular wisdom, knowledge is not power-it's potential power. Knowledge is not mastery. Execution is mastery. Execution will trump knowledge every day of the week.
The past does not equal the future.
If you can't, then you must!
Stay committed to your decisions, but stay flexible in your approach.
Its not about the goal. Its about growing to become the person that can accomplish that goal.
The path to success is to take massive, determined action.
Goals are like magnets. They'll attract the things that make them come true.
People are not lazy. They simply have impotent goals - that is, goals that do not inspire them.
We can change our lives. We can do, have, and be exactly what we wish.
If you want to be successful, find someone who has achieved the results you want and copy what they do and you'll achieve the same results.
Any time you sincerely want to make a change, the first thing you must do is to raise your standards. When people ask me what really changed my life eight years ago, I tell them that absolutely the most important thin was changing what I demanded of myself. I wrote down all the things I would no longer accept in my life, all the things I would no longer tolerate, and all the things that I aspired to becoming.
In life you need either inspiration or desperation.
It not knowing what to do, it's doing what you know.
