motivational miracle needs
I have found in life that if you want a miracle you first need to do whatever it is you can do – if that’s to plant, then plant; if it is to read, then read; if it is to change, then change; if it is to study, then study; if it is to work, then work; whatever you have to do. And then you will be well on your way of doing the labor that works miracles.
effectiveness ordinary-things wells
Success is doing ordinary things extraordinary well.
inspirational ifs
If you're going to affirm something, affirm the truth. Then go do something about it.
confidence self-esteem commitment
To have an incredible increase in self esteem, all you have to do is start doing some little something. You don't have to do spectacularly dramatic things for self esteem to start going off the scale. Just make a commitment to any easy discipline. Then another one and another one.
motivation eagles ducks
Don't waste your time trying to turn ducks into eagles. Hire people who already have the motivation and drive to be eagles and then just let them soar.
success men would-be
Pity the man who inherits a million and isn't a millionaire. Here's what would be pitiful, if your income grew and you didn't.
motivation self self-motivation
The best motivation is self-motivation.
inspiration matter wealth
Wealth is not a matter of intelligence, it's a matter of inspiration.
stupid fall sick
Learn all you can, don't be lazy. Nothing's worse than being stupid. Being broke is bad, but being stupid is what's really bad. And what's really really bad is being broke and stupid. Nothing's much worse than that. Unless you're sick. Sick, broke and stupid, that’s about as far as you can fall unless you're ugly. Surely that would be the ultimate; ugly, sick, broke and stupid.
greatness differences want
Humans have the remarkable ability to get exactly what they must have. But there is a difference between a 'must' and 'want'.
determination challenges soul
Confronting and overcoming challenges is an exhilarating experience. It does something to feed the soul and the mind. It makes you more than you were before. It strengthens the mental muscles and enables you to become better prepared for the next challenge.
balance cost spirituality
Life without balance can cost you your relationships. Life without balance can cost you your health. Life without balance can cost you your spirituality. Life without balance can cost you your wealth and your happiness. So find things to motivate you from all areas of life. Your success depends on it.
positivity push-ups
You can't hire someone else to do your push-ups for you.
life-and-love heart jail
A few years ago I lost one of my dearest friends. He died at age 53 - heart attack. David is gone, but he was one of my very special friends. I used to say of David that if I was stuck in a foreign jail somewhere accused unduly and if they would allow me one phone call, I would call David. Why? He would come and get me. That's a friend. Somebody who would come and get you.
