“One of the most common causes of failure is the habit of quitting when one is overtaken by temporary defeat
Napoleon Hill

“Leaders are not worried about the respect and honour they can be given, but the impacts and influence they can give!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Yes, we have to divide up our time like that, between our politics and our equations. But to me our equations are far more important, for politics are only a matter of present concern. A mathematical equation stands forever. ”
Albert Einstein

“Better to be strong,' he [Lolo] said...'if you can't be strong, be clever and make peace with someone who's strong. But always better to be strong yourself.”
Barack Obama

“We have a promise from God that those who place their hope in Him will never be disappointed or put to shame. (Romans 5:5.)”
Joyce Meyer

“My assignment as the post’s adjutant and personnel officer (I ended the war a captain) put me in close contact with the civilian bureaucrats and it didn’t take long for me to decide I didn’t think much of the inefficiency, empire building, and business-as-usual attitude that existed in wartime under the civil service system. If I suggested that an employee might be expendable, his supervisor would look at me as if I were crazy. He didn’t want to reduce the size of his department; his salary was based to a large extent on the number of people he supervised. He wanted to increase it, not decrease it. I discovered it was almost impossible to remove an incompetent or lazy worker and that one of the most popular methods supervisors used in dealing with an incompetent was to transfer him or her out of his department to a higher-paying job in another department. We had a warehouse filled with cabinets containing old records that had no use or historic value. They were totally obsolete. Well, with a war on, there was a need for the warehouse and the filing cabinets, so a request was sent up through channels requesting permission to destroy the obsolete papers. Back came a reply—permission granted provided copies are made of each paper destroyed.” 
Ronald Reagan

“Our actions are a direct result of our thoughts. If we have a negative mind, we will have a negative life.”

Billy Graham

“(Whatever human mind can conceive, it can achieve!)”
Napoleon Hill

“Stop complaining and do something... Shut up! Rise up! Grow up! And show up! See you at the top!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“If you don’t believe in yourself, how can you ask others to do so?”
Napoleon Hill

“Not ordinarily do men achieve this balance of opposites. The idealists are not usually realistic, and the realists are not usually idealistic. The militant are not generally known to be passive, nor the passive to be militant. Seldom are the humble self-assertive, or the self assertive humble. ...truth is found neither in the thesis nor the antithesis, but in an emergent synthesis that reconciles the two.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“Opportunity is in the eye of the beholder.”
John C. Maxwell

“The kind of death you should mourn over is the one that happen when you abort your potentials prematurely! Life without purpose is a tragedy!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“He knew when to compromise. Yet he never compromised his principles. He was a militant. Yet a militant who knew how to plan, assess concrete situations and emerge with rational solutions to problems.”
Nelson Mandela
