Written by Diana, on 07-12-2005 06:18 Views 121     Favoured None Many people have eaten my cooking and gone on to live normal lives Veni, Vidi, Volo in domum redire/I came, I saw, I want to go home "A beautiful form is better than a beautiful face; it gives a higher pleasure than statues or pictures; it is the finest of the fine arts." -- Ralph Waldo Emerson "If you train your mind to search for the positive things about other people, you will be surprised at how many good things you can observe in them and comment upon." - Alan Loy Mcginnis "Most people never run far enough on their first wind to find out they've got a second. Give your dreams all you've got and you'll marvel at the energy that comes out of you." -- William James "Dedicate yourself to continuous personal improvement - you are your most precious resource." - Brian Tracy "Successful, self-starting individuals seek responsibility. They take calculated risks, they don't make excuses to cover up their inactivity." - Nido Qubein "Bigness comes from doing many small things well. Individually, they are not very dramatic transactions. Together, though, they add up." -- Edward S. Finkelstein The first ingredient of your success is to dream a great dream. You must dream big and think big to be big. High expectation always precedes high achievement. If you dream of little goals you can expect little achievement. Dream of big goals and you'll win big success. Max Steingart "I will persist until I succeed. Always will I take another step. If that is of no avail I will take another, and yet another. In truth, one step at a time is not too difficult... I know that small attempts, repeated, will complete any undertaking." -- Og Mandino "Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great ones make you feel that you too, can become great." ? Mark Twain I saw this one on a billboard this morning on my way to work: "If you think inside the box, you'll never get out of it" "You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face." - Eleanor Roosevelt "Obstacles are what you see when you take your eyes off your goals." - Brian Tracy "I am not judged by the number of times I fail, but by the number of times I succeed; and the number of times I succeed is in direct proportion to the number of times I can fail and keep on trying." - Tom Hopkins "The clearer you are about the consequences of your actions and the more intensely you desire to enjoy the consequences that your behaviors may lead to, the more motivated you will be." - Brian Tracy "Whoever renders service to many puts himself in line for greatness - great wealth, great return, great satisfaction, great reputation and great joy." Jim Rohn "The few who do are the envy of the many who only watch." Jim Rohn "You have it easily in your power to increase the sum total of this world's happiness now. How? By giving a few words of sincere appreciation to someone who is lonely or discouraged. Perhaps you will forget tomorrow the kind words you say today, but the recipient may cherish them over a lifetime." - Dale Carnegie “The past cannot be changed. The future is yet in your power.” -Hugh White "Dream lofty dreams, and as you dream, so shall you become. Your vision is your promise of what you shall one day be; your ideal is the prophecy of what you shall one day unveil." James Allen "Difficulties come not to obstruct, but to instruct. Within every setback or obstacle lie seeds of an equal or greater benefit or opportunity." -- Brian Tracy "... if we wait for the moment when everything, absolutely everything is ready, we shall never begin." - Ivan Turgenev "Difficult times have helped me to understand better than before, how infinitely rich and beautiful life is in every way, and that so many things that one goes worrying about are of no importance whatsoever..." -- Isak Dinesen "Remember that the six most expensive words in business are: 'We've always done it that way.'" - Catherine DeVrye "Every memorable act in the history of the world is a triumph of enthusiasm. Nothing great was ever achieved without it because it gives any challenge or any occupation, no matter how frightening or difficult, a new meaning. Without enthusiasm you are doomed to a life of mediocrity but with it you can accomplish miracles." - Og Mandino "Be curious always, for knowledge will not acquire you; you must acquire it." Sudie Back "Don't get complacent. Push yourself out of your comfort zone and set higher standards of achievement for yourself. Once you've achieved a standard of excellence, never let it rest?push yourself even higher." ? Dave Anderson "The greatest mistake you can make in life is to be continually fearing you will make one." Elbert Hubbard "Watch your manner of speech if you wish to develop a peaceful state of mind. Start each day by affirming peaceful, contented and happy attitudes and your days will tend to be pleasant and successful." - Norman Vincent Peale "I long to accomplish a great and noble task, but it is my chief duty to accomplish small tasks as if they were great and noble." -- Helen Keller "It takes less time to do things right that to explain why you did it wrong." -- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow "Now is the only time there is. Make your now wow, your minutes miracles, and your days pay. Your life will have been magnificently lived and invested, and when you die you will have made a difference." - Mark Victor Hansen "You've got to get up every morning with determination if you're going to go to bed with satisfaction." - George Lorimer Last update: 07-12-2005 06:18 Published in : Fight, Express Quote this article in website Favored (0) Save this to del.icio.us Users' Comments (0) Add your comment
