No matter how you choose to act, that is the person you will become.
~ John Patrick Hickey
How we talk effects our lives in two very important ways. It shows how we think of others and how we think of ourselves. The fascinating thing is they always run together.
There is a wonderful power that comes when you know that someone will achieve something great due to your help.
On your journey to achievement, you should never be without good positive materials and people who will encourage you, excite you and give you a reason to move forward.
Books have the power to change and transform your life like few other things you have.
Anyone who is so busy that they do not have time to enjoy what life has for them are just too busy.
Stop making excuses of why you can’t or how hard it is and start making your life matter.
Always remember, success leaves clues.
Always our action counts for our success, not our time.
Here is the truth: The journey to achievement is not a destination, it is only a stop over to the next goal.
Success-minded people know that nothing is without a reason.
Mark this on your wall and remember it always: The greatest single most powerful enemy to success is success itself.
The achievement of the goal is only a stepping-stone to the next, bigger and better goal. It never stops.
There is nothing better in the whole world than to know you have set a goal and achieved it.
I can tell you without question that there is one key element that makes the difference between those who succeed and those who do not. That element is action.
Each of us have a choice to make. Will we choose to achieve our dreams or will we choose to allow others to use us to achieve their dreams.
There is a universal truth that all successful people know: Nothing is ever done until you take action.
It is amazing to see all that is going on around us and it is people of action who make it all happen.
A bit of research can save you hours, days of time correcting mistakes that you never had to make in the first place.
Only the foolish insist on making their own mistakes when they can learn from the mistakes of others. Only the wise will understand that success leaves clues, and those clues are there for you to use to achieve great things.
Always remember that the lessons you learn in life are never meant just for you. They are like all our gifts, they are meant to be used and shared, never horded and hidden.
There is only one way to success, wealth and achievement and that is through a lot of hard work.
The road to success and achievement can be a busy highway – crowded and noisy, full of hazards and tie-ups. Every now and then, you need to take the side roads, get away from the rush, and enjoy the trip.
Successful people have always been the ones to learn from the mistakes of others as well as from their successes.
A goal that is set in your head is only a wish and holds as much form as smoke.
Here is one of the biggest reasons why keeping your goals in your mind only is dangerous: your brain leaks!
If you are serious about your goals and you truly desire to achieve your dreams, you must write them down.
Writing out a goal allows us to see it in words. It creates a statement that does not change, it is something that we can go back to repeatedly for direction and clarity.
Writing out your goals is the first action in a chain of many on the road to achievement.
Success-minded people need to understand that the small voice inside them is there for a reason.
Success-minded people must understand that we cannot arrive at our destination the same as we left. Just as things will be different, you too must be different.
Our body is the vehicle that we are given for our journey and if we do not take care of it, we will find ourselves broken down on the side of the road facing costly and time-consuming repairs.
Burnout is not the result of doing too much, it is the result of not getting enough rest.
