“You are fully responsible for everything you are, everything you have and everything you become.”

“No person or situation can make you fed anything-it is only the way you think about a situation that makes you feel the way you do.”

“Only people can be made to increase in value. Computers and other equipment depreciate and eventually become obsolete.”

“You perform at your highest potential only when you are focusing on the most valuable use of your time. This is the key to personal and business success. It is the central issue in personal efficiency and time management. You must always be asking yourself, What is the most valuable use of my time right now? Discipline yourself to work exclusively on the one task that, at any given time, is the answer to this question. Keep yourself on track and focused on your most important responsibilities by asking yourself, over and over, What is the most valuable use of my time right now? How you can apply this law immediately: 1. Remember that you can do only one thing at a time. Stop and think before you begin. Be sure that the task you do is the highest-value use of your time. Remind yourself that anything else you do while your most important task remains undone is a relative waste of time. 2. Be clear about the most valuable work that you do for your organization. Whatever it is, resolve to concentrate on doing that specific task before anything else. Why are you on the payroll? What specific, tangible, measurable results are expected of you? And of all the different results you are capable of achieving, which are the most important to your career at this moment? Whatever the answer, this is where you must focus your energies, and nowhere else.”

“Develop an attitude of gratitude, and give thanks of everything that happens to you, knowing that every step forward is a step toward achieving something bigger and better than your current situation.”

“You can get your time and your life under control only to the degree to which you discontinue lower-value activities.”

“Excellence/Perfection is not a destination; it is a continuous journey that never ends.”

“If you don't set goals for yourself, you are doomed to achieve the goals of someone else.”

“Never say anything about yourself you do not want to come true.”

“The Key to Success is Action”

“You will regret many things in life, but you will never regret being too kind or too fair.”

“Awareness is the starting point of every quest and the outcome of every journey.”

“Never complain, never explain. Resist the temptation to defend yourself or make excuses.”

“Get it 80 percent right and then correct it later." Run it up the flagpole and see if anyone salutes. Don't expect perfection the first time or even the first few times. Be prepared to fail over and over before you get it right. The biggest enemies we have to overcome on the road to success are not a lack of ability and a lack of opportunity but fears of failure and rejection and the doubts that they trigger. The only way to overcome your fears is to "do the thing you fear,”
