Most of your happiness will come from your relationships with others. Handle them with care.

Relationships are the hallmark of the mature person.

Failure is an indispensable prerequisite of success. It is how you learn the lessons you need.

Anything worth doing is worth doing poorly at first.

Think before you act and then act decisively. Fortune favors the brave.

By acting in a positive, pleasant and optimistic way, you become a positive, optimistic and enjoyable person.

There are never any traffic jams on the extra mile.

Happiness comes when you believe in what you are doing, know what you are doing, and love what you are doing.

Consistency paired with self-discipline is crucial to achieving your goals and being successful.

The tendency to follow the path of least resistance guarantees failure in life.

To be successful, you need to really work hard. And every study in the last 50 years says that successful people say, I am not smarter than anybody else. I just want to work harder and longer.

A clear vision, backed by definite plans, gives you a tremendous feeling of confidence and personal power.

Decide upon your major definite purpose in life and then organize all your activities around it.

Those who start in business with too little money are more likely to succeed than those who start with too much. Energy and imagination are the springboards to wealth creation.

What one skill, if you developed it, could have the greatest positive impact on your career? This is the key to your future.

You become what you think about most of the time.

Your ability to get along well with others will determine your happiness and success as much as any other factor.

Sometimes you can defuse a difficult situation simply by being willing to understand the other person. Often all that people need is to know that someone else cares about how they feel and it attempting to understand their position.

It doesn't matter where you came from, it doesn't matter how poor you are, it doesn't matter where your family was. It all doesn't matter. You can achieve anything if you have really clear goals and if you work really hard to learn what you need to learn.

Never complain, never explain. Resist the temptation to defend yourself or make excuses.
