Great things will rarely happen if you are only expecting bad things for yourself. 

True, saying “yes” takes a little more courage.  I understand when you say “yes” you will not be sure what is always going to happen. But you can be certain of this: when you first say “no,” nothing will.

Sometimes we feel that we have certain weaknesses and we want to blame something for it, but we never know that our weaknesses can become our strengths one day.

When exactly is it ever a good reason to not do your best? Never!

Generous people are in much better health.  Being able to step outside of oneself and give is an essential ingredient for happiness.

Motivation alone is trying to feel like doing stuff. Discipline is doing it even if you don’t feel like it.

We waste our most valuable commodity – time – responding to what we think is urgent while ignoring the truly important.
