Remember that unjust critisism is often a disquised compliment.
Those convinced against their will are of the same opinion still.
Flaming enthusiasm, backed up by horse sense and persistence, is the quality that most frequently makes for success.
First ask yourself: What is the worst that can happen? Then prepare to accept it. Then proceed to improve on the worst.
Do the very best you can.
Our fatigue is often caused not by work, but by worry, frustration and resentment.
Do the hard jobs first. The easy jobs will take care of themselves.
When fate hands you a lemon, make lemonade.
If you want to develop courage, do the thing you fear and keep on doing it until you have a record of successful experiences behind you. That is the quickest and surest way ever yet discovered to conquer fear. You can conquer almost any fear if you will only make up your mind to do so. For remember, fear doesn't exist anywhere except in the mind.
People rarely succeed unless they have fun in what they are doing.
Fear doesn't exist anywhere except in the mind.
If you want to be enthusiastic, act enthusiastic.
The sure-thing boat never gets far from shore.
Most of us have far more courage than we ever dreamed we possessed.
