YOUR CHOICES ARE UNLIMITED

YOUR CHOICES ARE UNLIMITED

You don’t have to buy from anyone. You don’t have to work at any particular job. You don’t have to participate in any given relationship.

You can choose.

You steer the course you choose in the direction of where you want to be today, tomorrow, or in a distant time to come.

You hold the tiller.

You can decide to alter the course of your life at any time.

No one can ever take that away from you. You can decide what you want and go after it.

It’s always your next move.

EVERY FAILURE IS A STEP CLOSER TO SUCCESS

EVERY FAILURE IS A STEP CLOSER TO SUCCESS

People who try to do something and fail are infinitely better than those who try to do nothing and succeed.

Experiencing failure is inevitable on your journey to be successful. Each defeat is merely an installment to victory.

You’ll find that the number of times you succeed is in direct proportion to the number of times you fail and keep trying. You won’t be judged

by the number of times you fail, but by the number of times you succeed.

Failure is nothing but education, nothing but the first step to something better.

You can’t be a winner and be afraid to lose.

IT’S YOUR FRIENDS THAT MAKE YOUR WORLD

IT’S YOUR FRIENDS THAT MAKE YOUR WORLD

Your own positive energy will compel things to turn out the way you desire when you’re surrounded by positive people.

Choose your environment with care. Your environment is your mental feeding ground. It’s where all the food that goes into your mind comesĀ from.

Choose your environment with care, one that is positive, one that lifts you up and gives you wings to soar.

Create favorable conditions through your association with others. Avoid people who belittle your ambition.

Small people always do that, but the really great people, make you feel that you, too, can become great.

LEADERSHIP IS ACTION NOT POSITION

LEADERSHIP IS ACTION NOT POSITION

All successful people became successful, because they gave some talent or ability in the service of others.

You can contribute in some way to others, no matter how small your talent. You too, can become successful.

No one achieves success without being of service.

Successful people don’t use others, other people use the successful, for above all success is of service.

Everyone has to be someone to someone to be anyone. Service is the essence of success.

THE FIRE OF LIFE IS DESIRE

THE FIRE OF LIFE IS DESIRE

If you want something badly enough, you’re sure to get it.

Your desires will in time externalize themselves into concrete fact.

Obstacles don’t matter very much. Pain or other circumstances can be there. But if you want to do something bad enough, you’ll find a way to get it done.

Your reality forms around your commitment to succeed. If you’re willing to pay the price, your circumstances will change.

You only have to love a thing greatly to get it.

YOUR HABITS WILL PUSH YOU TO SUCCESS

YOUR HABITS WILL PUSH YOU TO SUCCESS

First you make your habits, and then your habits make you.

Break those habits that can break you. Adopt those practices that will become the new habits that will help you achieve the success you desire.

Your habits are a form of exercise. The harder you work at something, the harder it is to quit. The easier it is to do, the harder it is to change.

Your habits are either the best of servants or the worst of masters. You are what you repeatedly do.

YOU CAN DO SOMETHING

YOU CAN DO SOMETHING

Your life will always be to a large extent what you make of it. The mold to your success and fortune are in your hands.

You cannot do everything, but you can do something.

You choose your thoughts and actions. Only you can find success.

Nobody can do it for you. Nobody will do it for you. You have to make it happen.

If you take responsibility for your actions,you can live your dreams.

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER

The most successful people in life are the ones with the best information. People with power are people who know how to get things done.

Knowing how to do something is sometimes virtually the same as having done it.

Knowledge will come to you when your eyes and mind are always open. There is no knowledge that is not power. Power is the product of understanding.

You’ll build the power to accomplish your goals by educating yourself. This power comes from knowing how to do something.

In the land of the blind, the one eyed man is king.

THE HIGHEST OF DISTINCTIONS IS SERVICE TO OTHERS

THE HIGHEST OF DISTINCTIONS IS SERVICE TO OTHERS

The truly successful person doesn’t use others, other people use them.

If you can contribute to others, no matter how small your talent, you too can become successful. The measure of anyone is the number of people that they serve.

Service to others is the essence of success.
No one achieves success without being of service.

All great men and women became successful because they gave some talent or ability in the service of others.

Everybody has to be somebody to somebody to be anybody.

SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE FOLLOW THEIR PLAN

You need a plan to find success.

Wanting success isn’t sufficient enough to get it. You’ve got to ask yourself, “What are you going to do to get the things you want.”

Your problem is to bridge the gap which exists between where you are now and the goal you intend to reach.

You cannot fail with a definite step by step plan, because each step you take will carry you along to the next step, like a track.

All you need is the plan, the road map, and the courage to press on to your destination.

You can not get lost on a straight road.
