A will finds a way.

Achievement is not always success, while reputed failure often is. It is honest endeavor, persistent effort to do the best possible under any and all circumstances.

A will finds a way.

Deep within man dwell those slumbering powers; powers that would astonish him, that he never dreamed of possessing; forces that would revolutionize his life if aroused and put into action.

The waste of life occasioned by trying to do too many things at once is appalling.

A good system shortens the road to the goal.

Nothing else so destroys the power to stand alone as the habit of leaning upon others. If you lean, you will never be strong or original. Stand alone or bury your ambition to be somebody in the world.

Character is the indelible mark that determines the only true value of all people and all their work.

Our trials, our sorrows, and our grieves develop us.

There is no stimulus like that which comes from the consciousness of knowing that others believe in us.

Our thoughts and imagination are the only real limits to our possibilities.

The best thing about giving of ourselves is that what we get is always better than what we give. The reaction is greater than the action.

Many a man has finally succeeded only because he has failed after repeated efforts. If he had never met defeat he would never have known any great victory.

The golden opportunity you are seeking is in yourself. It is not in your environment; it is not in luck or chance, or the help of others; it is in yourself alone.

The man who has no money is poor, but one who has nothing but money is poorer. He only is rich who can enjoy without owning; he is poor who though he has millions is covetous.

We make the world we live in and shape our own environment.

The greatest thing a man can do in this world is to make the most possible out of the stuff that has been given him. This is success, and there is no other.

There is an infinite difference between a little wrong and just right, between fairly good and the best, between mediocrity and superiority.

A strong, successful man is not the victim of his environment. He creates favorable conditions. His own inherent force and energy compel things to turn out as he desires.

There is only one thing for us to do, and that is to do our level best right where we are every day of our lives; To use our best judgment, and then to trust the rest to that Power which holds the forces of the universe in his hands.

There can be no failure to a man who has not lost his courage, his character, his self respect, or his self-confidence. He is still a King.

The hand cannot reach higher than does the heart.

Your outlook upon life, your estimate of yourself, your estimate of your value are largely colored by your environment. Your whole career will be modified, shaped, molded by your surroundings, by the character of the people with whom you come in contact every day.

Don't wait for extraordinary opportunities. Seize common occasions and make them great. Weak men wait for opportunities; strong men make them.

The quality of your work, in the long run, is the deciding factor on how much your services are valued by the world.

We advance on our journey only when we face our goal, when we are confident and believe we are going to win out.

There is no medicine like hope, no incentive so great, and no tonic so powerful as expectation of something better tomorrow.

The influential man is the successful man, whether he be rich or poor.

It is what we do easily and what we like to do that we do well.

Success is not measured by what you accomplish, but by the opposition you have encountered, and the courage with which you have maintained the struggle against overwhelming odds.

The Creator has not given you a longing to do that which you have no ability to do.

Be larger than your task.

There can be no great courage where there is no confidence or assurance, and half the battle is in the conviction that we can do what we undertake.

To many a man, and sometimes to a youth, there comes the opportunity to choose between honorable competence and tainted wealth. The young man who starts out to be poor and honorable, holds in his hand one of the strongest elements of success.

Our destiny changes with our thought; we shall become what we wish to become, do what we wish to do, when our habitual thought corresponds with our desire.

Forests, lakes, and rivers, clouds and winds, stars and flowers, stupendous glaciers and crystal snowflakes - every form of animate or inanimate existence, leaves its impress upon the soul of man.

Joyfulness keeps the heart and face young. A good laugh makes us better friends with ourselves and everybody around us.

Power gravitates to the man who knows how.

It is like the seed put in the soil - the more one sows, the greater the harvest.

All men who have achieved great things have been great dreamers.

When we are sure that we are on the right road there is no need to plan our journey too far ahead. No need to burden ourselves with doubts and fears as to the obstacles that may bar our progress. We cannot take more than one step at a time.

We must give more in order to get more. It is the generous giving of ourselves that produces the generous harvest.

There is no investment you can make which will pay you so well as the effort to scatter sunshine and good cheer through your establishment.

It is psychological law that whatever we desire to accomplish we must impress upon the subjective or subconscious mind.

Success is the child of drudgery and perseverance. It cannot be coaxed or bribed; pay the price and it is yours.

Most of our obstacles would melt away if, instead of cowering before them, we should make up our minds to walk boldly through them.

Put the uncommon effort into the common task... make it large by doing it in a great way.
