Jangan menunggu; tidak akan pernah ada waktu yang tepat. Mulailah di mana pun Anda berada, dan bekerja dengan alat apa pun yang Anda miliki. Peralatan yang lebih baik akan ditemukan ketika Anda melangkah

Hambatan tidak bisa menghentikan Anda. Masalah tidak bisa menghentikan Anda. Orang lain tidak bisa menghentikan Anda. Hanya Anda yang bisa menghentikan Anda

Juara adalah pecundang yang bangkit dan mencoba sekali lagi

Saya telah gagal dalam 9.000 tembakan. Saya telah kalah hampir 300 pertandingan. Saya 26 kali gagal saat dipercaya menembakan bola yang memenangi pertandingan. Saya gagal dan gagal lagi dalam kehidupan. Dan itulah mengapa saya sukses

Sukses adalah kemampuan untuk melangkah dari kegagalan tanpa hilang antusiasme

Sukses berkaitan dengan tindakan. Orang sukses terus melangkah. Mereka membuat kesalahan namun tidak menyerah

Ada dua aturan untuk menjadi sukses. Pertama, cari tahu hal yang ingin Anda lakukan. Kedua, lakukan hal tersebut

Hambatan itu sering menjadi batu pijakan

Mengetahui saja tidak cukup; kita harus menerapkan. Keinginan saja tidak cukup; kita harus melakukan

Sukses itu tidak diukur oleh posisi yang telah diraih seseorang dalam kehidupan, tapi hambatan yang telah ia atasi saat berusaha untuk sukses

Jika Anda ingin membuat mimpi Anda menjadi kenyataan, hal pertama yang harus Anda lakukan adalah bangun

Kita jangan menyerah dan jangan membiarkan masalah mengalahkan kita

Perjalanan ribuan mil dimulai dengan langkah pertama

Anda tidak harus hebat untuk memulai, tapi Anda harus memulai untuk menjadi orang hebat

Orang yang tidak pernah membuat kesalahan adalah orang yang tidak pernah mencoba sesuatu yang baru

Tidak ada pekerjaan yang susah jika Anda membaginya menjadi pekerjaan-pekerjaan kecil

Tindakan adalah kunci dasar untuk semua kesuksesan

Cara untuk memulai adalah berhenti berbicara dan mulai melakukan

Pemimpin sukses harus merencanakan pekerjaannya dan mengerjakan rencana tersebut
