No Passion Found In Playing Small

“As Nelson Mandela once said, “There is no passion to be found in playing small—in settling for a life less than what you are capable of living.” This from a man who asked the can after 25 years in jail and became the first black president of a country once ruled by apartheid. You can."

-- Bob Litwin

Your Behavior Rats You Out Every Time

"If you say you’re a dedicated professional, but you show up late and unprepared, your behavior rats you out every time. That’s the truth about who you are. Now you get to decide whether that’s okay, or if you want to change."

Your History Is A Huge Help

"Your history is a huge help here. If you’ve finished a marathon, you can probably finish writing a book; if you’ve raised kids, chances are you can grow a pretty beautiful garden; if you built a successful financial foundation once, chances are you can build one up again; if you had one idea that turned profitable, chances are you’ll have another."

Make Yourself More Creative and Sharp

"Get out of your comfort zone. Try getting dressed with your eyes closed, or with one hand. Order something you have never tried before at a restaurant.

It can keep you sharp and can make you more creative."

A Mission Helps You Stay Motivated

"A mission helps you stay motivated and creates a solid foundation that will drive your life.

-- Bob Litwin

Give Full Attention To Your Work

-- Donald Trump

An Excuse A Day Makes The Goals Away

-- Linda Kaplan Thaler

Don't Let Go Of Your Dream

-- Lindsay C. Gibson

If You Lost Everything You Had

"Ask yourself what you’d do if you lost your job today or lost everything you had. Now write a list of the steps you would take.

But it can also lead you to be proactive about making a change in your life. The answer may even be the key to your future happiness."

-- Linda Kaplan Thaler

-- Bob Litwin

You Do Not Know Everything

-- Yvonne Teoh Bource

Rejection Equaled To Success

"The game had only one rule: You must be rejected by someone every single day. In fact, rejection equaled success in the game. If your target didn’t reject you, and instead granted your request, it counted as a failure because you evidently didn’t ask for enough."

-- Linda Kaplan Thaler

Questions Are The Answers

"What questions do you ask more than any other?
What do you focus on most often?
What's your life's obsession?
Are you aware of what you focus on most; your primary question in life?  Whatever it is, it will shape, mold and direct our life."

-- Anthony Robbins

Ignoring Opportunity Itself Is A Response

"Some may lead nowhere, and some to disaster. Yet when opportunity presents itself, we have no choice but to respond. (Ignoring opportunity is itself a response.)"

--  Bernard Roth

Decide What To Say To Hopelessness

"Decide what you are going to say to hopelessness when it shows up, because it will come. Figure out the right slogans to deflate it. Look through magazines or books for inspiration. Then write or paste the reminder slogans on a few index cards, and put them safely in a drawer where you can pull them out as needed in order to get yourself going again."

-- Lindsay C. Gibson

See Small Wins To Win More

"When you see the small wins, even among what we call the “losses,” we tend to begin to win more. Why? It’s the reticular activating system in the brain. What we pay attention to grows. When we begin to see wins everywhere, we begin to win more and more, on a larger and larger scale."

-- Bob Litwin

My Failures Are Numerous

"My failures are as numerous as my victories. Fortunately, with each one I took away more than disappointment; I gained insight, insight that I was smart enough to use toward my long-term vision."

-- Richard Templar

When You Define Your Goals

-- Darren Hardy

Always Stay Open to Possibility

"It’s a very good idea to have a general sense of your goals in life, and an equally good idea not to get too rigid about your path. Stay open to possibility: let other people in, and listen when new opportunities present themselves."

-- Yvonne Teoh Bource

People Who Expect Setbacks

"Everybody loses their nerve once in awhile, but it is the people who expect setbacks and then go on anyway that make it.  Just because you fall down and feel lost, this is not a statement of reality. It is only a mood commenting on a bad day."

-- Lindsay C. Gibson

What You Can Achieve in Life

"What you can achieve in life has a lot to do with your self-image. If you see yourself as a risk taker and a doer, you’re more likely to take risks and do! If you see yourself as cautious and scared, it may make the road to achieving your goals a lot more protracted and difficult."

--  Bernard Roth

Enjoy It, Live It, and Learn From It

-- Brendon Burchard

When Things Become Most Comfortable

"Our minds start to take for granted the things with which we become most comfortable—when the key is actually to keep making the experience brand new over and over again. To pay attention. When you can feel like a beginner it helps you focus again."

Impossible For You To Go On

"If it is impossible for you to go on as you were before, so you must go on as you never have."

--  Bernard Roth

People Who Take Responsibility

-- Lindsay C. Gibson

Humbleness in Eyes of Ancient

"Humbleness in the eyes of the ancient wise emphasised deep respect for others, coming from the bottom of our hearts.  To be humble means to not be full of ourselves, to not be arrogant, prideful and self-centric.  It means to have courage to admit our insufficiencies, to be willing to learn from others, to accept other's guidance and to dare to improve and upgrade oneself."

-- Buddha

Choose To Overcome Fear

-- Yvonne Teoh Bource

-- Yvonne Teoh Bource

You Are Really As Young As You Think

"To keep from growing old, we of course do not have to avoid knowing the number of years we have lived, though it is certain that some of us put all too much emphasis on birthdays.

-- Eric Butterworth

-- Lindsay C. Gibson

Continually Surpass and Challenge Yourself

"Steadiness is the foundation for curbing recklessness, quietness is the key to preventing frustration.  Preserving a quiet heart, you can then continually surpass and challenge yourself.  You will become more pleasant-looking and cultured, you will become more mature and stable.  You will meet with happiness and be acquainted with success."

-- Buddha

-- Yvonne Teoh Bource

Commit To Completion In Everything

-- Keith Harrell

What Being Prepared Really Means

"No matter how hard you work, there are times that things happen that are out of our control. Keep your eyes on your ideals as well as reality. That’s what being prepared really means."

-- Donald Trump

Filial Piety, Filial Piety and Lastly, Still Filial

"The three elements of children's treatment of parents are filial piety, filial piety and lastly, still filial piety.  We can never fully repay the kindness to our parents.  To be filial is not to provide materially, making our parents is the greatest act of filial piety.  Filial piety is not only the yardstick for personal behaviour and family management, but the core yardstick for personal behaviour and family management, but the core guiding principle in running a country and bring harmony to the world.  It is a universal and perennial fundamental value.

-- Buddha

-- Darren Hardy

Formality Necessary To Restrain Behaviour

"Formality is respect.  Respect others and more so oneself, is something everyone must observe.  If there is no respect for formalities and rules, there will be many phenomena that go against convention.  Formality is necessary to restrain behaviour and to educate.  Be it to cultivate oneself, manage family or to improve one's mind, formality must be present."

-- Buddha

-- Donald Trump

The Same Thing Might Happen Again

"A frightening situation that metamorphoses into a story in your mind that the same thing might happen again can lead to chronic anxiety or post-traumatic stress. Guilt or shame can lead to powerlessness, depression, or self-harm, if you don’t meet it mindfully. The key lies in how you respond."

-- Hugh G. Byrne

When Actions Conflict With Your Values

"When your actions conflict with your values, you’ll end up unhappy, frustrated, and despondent. In fact, psychologists tell us that nothing creates more stress than when our actions and behaviors aren’t congruent with our values."

-- Darren Hardy

Life Has Its Ups and Downs

"Everything in life has its ups and downs,  ins and outs, plusses and minuses. Some bits of your grand plan will go far more smoothly than you dared hope, whereas others throw up problems you simply hadn’t foreseen. And what I’m saying is that that’s OK. It’s life."

-- Richard Templar

Be Brave Enough To Take Action

"Be brave enough to take action, test things out, fail, get up again, fail again, get embarrassed for trying, fail some more, get up again and smile, and keep moving—this is the stuff of courage, and the only approach to change that will fuel your charge and help your life truly lift off."

-- Melvyn L. Fein.

It Is Up To You To Change Your Thinking

"It is all up to you and me. It is you who says, “I can’t win; I can’t get an A; I’ll never be able to buy a house; I’ll never find a mate … ” Since even scientists believe that there is some probability for every single possibility, it is up to us to change our thinking and acknowledge that fact, too."

-- Natalie Reid

-- Bob Bowman

Fail Then Learn Then Try Again

"Fail -> Learn -> Try again.  These were the principles of Thomas Edison, one of the greatest inventors in history.  Is it any wonder the first of more than 1000 Edison patents was granted when he was just 22, or that he was the founder of 14 companies, including General Electric?"

Self-Cultivation Is For Our Benefits

"Self-cultivation is not for the benefits of others, but to enhance one's ability to survive.  One should always cultivate one's morals.  People may not know who you are but your moral character defines you.  Trouble arise from our minds, the states we are in are formed by our minds.  If we cannot master our destiny, it will in turn manipulate us.  If we cannot right our mentalities, our lives will lose uprightness.  Only with a positive and good mentality, can we enjoy our lives."

-- Brendon Burchard

The Best Indicators of Character

-- Zig Ziglar

"Healthy is a condition for wisdom and a symbolism for joy.  We live not based on our physical being, but based on our mind.  Sometimes you become happier with a change in mood.  The mind is like a vessel, when it contains more happiness, it can hold less troubles; when it contains simple things; it has less chances of getting into tangles; when it holds more contentment, it will hold less pain; when it holds more forgiveness, there will naturally be less hatred.  The broadness of our mind decides how much it can hold, our state of  mind decides where we stand in life."

-- Buddha

-- Eric Butterworth

It Is What You Are Thinking About

"The best and most beautiful things on earth come about from the labour of our clever hands.  While the process of creation may be fraught with hardships yet bring unsurpassed glory, and all the suffering is for eventual success, the greatest happiness in life may well be in the process and not the result.  Only if you are willing, can you create new things."

Cherish Your Own Time

"As we age, we become increasingly sensitive to the value of Time.  Our lives are made of moments in time, the wastage of time means living a part of life in vain.  Time cannot lengthen one's life, however cherishing time can bring more value to our lives.  The value of each day is what's most worthy of cherishing, because it symbolizes eternity.  Winning time, means you win everything."

"It’s time to let the past stand as is and move beyond it."

Your Predominant Beliefs

-- T. Harv Eker

This really is a character issue."

-- Zig Ziglar

Thought To Be Refined and Concentrated

The Intelligence Label is Unimportant

Opportune Moments

"In life, who has no wish to be wealthy and successful?  The Chinese term for CRISES has two parts, one meaning DANGER, and the other OPPORTUNITY.  The wise create fortunes while the foolish crave them.

One must always do one's very best, for he who gives up midway will never succeed."

-- Buddha

Begins Working OnYourself

When To Watch Yourself

-- Napoleon Hill

Thought Cannot Die
