You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.
Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune.
Don't wish it were easier. Wish you were better.
If you really want to do something, you'll find a way. If you don't, you'll find an excuse.
Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.
The challenge of leadership is to be strong, but not rude; be kind, but not weak; be bold, but not bully; be thoughtful, but not lazy; be humble, but not timid; be proud, but not arrogant; have humor, but without folly.
Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment.
We must all suffer one of two things: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret or disappointment.
Let others lead small lives, but not you. . . Let others argue over small things, but not you. . . Let others cry over small hurts, but not you. . . Let others leave their future in someone else's hands, but not you.
Don't wish it was easier wish you were better. Don't wish for less problems wish for more skills. Don't wish for less challenge wish for more wisdom.
The worst thing one can do is not to try, to be aware of what one wants and not give in to it, to spend years in silent hurt wondering if something could have materialized - never knowing.
