A success is one who decided to succeed-
and worked.

A failures is one who decided to succeed-
and wished.

A decided failure is one who failed to decide-
and waited.

- William A. Ward

Far better it is to dare mighty things,
to win glorious triumphs,
even though checkered with failure,
than to take rank with those poor spirits who
neither enjoy much nor suffer much because
they live in the gray twilight that knows not
victory or defeat.

- Theodore Roosevelt

Do It Today

Do the right thing;
Do it today;
Do it with no hope of return or promise of reward;
Do it with a smile and a cheerful attitude;
Do it day after day after day.
Do it, and someday,
There will come a day
That will be a payday
For all the yesterdays
You spent focused on the current day-
That will not only give value to today,
But will make each future day
Outshine each yesterday.
And what more could you ask of a day?

- John C. Maxwell

They Called It Luck

Subscribe in a reader

He worked by day,
and toiled by night.

He gave up play
and much delight.

Dry books he read,
new things to learn.

And forged ahead,
success to earn.

He plodded on,
with faith and pluck.

And when he won,
they called it luck.

Win the Daily Battle

Subscribe in a reader

People who achieve daily success have learned
to conquer four common time-wasters.

Laziness:
Time put to no useful purpose,
not even relaxation.

Procrastination:
Putting off things that should be done now.

Distraction:
Time frittered away on the details of side issues,
to the detriment of the main issue.

Impatience:
Lack of preparation, thoroughness,
or perseverance, using resulting in
time-consuming mistakes.

- By John C. Maxwell

Success is not measured
by what a man accomplishes,
but by the opposition he has encountered,
and the courage with which he
has maintained the struggle against
overwhelming odds.

There are no shortcuts
to any place worth going.

- Beverly Sills

Failure is really a matter of conceit.
People don't work hard because,
in the conceit, they imagine they'll succeed
without ever making an effort.
Most people believe that they'll
wake up some day and find themselves rich.
Actually, they've got it half right,
because eventually they do wake up.

- Thomas Edison

Genius is ninety-nine percent perspiration and one percent inspiration. - Thomas Edison

Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up. 

- Thomas Edison 

There is no defeat 
except in no longer trying. There is no
defeat save within,
no really insurmountable barrier,
save our own inherent weakness 
of purpose.

- Elbert Hubbard
