To Succeed, Stop Blaming Someone

"You will never become successful as long as you continue to blame someone or something else for your lack of success. If you are going to be a winner, you have to acknowledge the truth—it is you who took the actions, thought the thoughts, created the feelings, and made the choices that got you to where you now are. It was you!"

-- Jack Canfield


"It all matters: everything you see, hear, watch, say, and think.  Therefore, be the gate-keeper of your mind and choose carefully what goes in."

Stop Minimizing Yourself

Add Spice To Your Life

"Goals and achievements add spice to life.  Pursuing them helps to make life feel exciting and worthwhile.  In my experience, the striving is more satisfying than the achievement itself; the journey is more important than the destination.  I think that it would be a mistake to tell yourself that you will be happy at a specific point in the future only if you have achieved certain goals.  It is far better to tell yourself that you will be happy, here and now, in the midst of pursuing a certain goal."

-- Gary Hayden
