“Concern yourself more with accepting responsibility than with assigning blame. Let the possibilities inspire you more than the obstacles discourage you.”
“If you so choose, each day can be filled with even more joy than the one before. If you so choose, even the most seemingly random events can work in your favor.”
“There are plenty of difficult obstacles in your path. Don't allow yourself to become one of them.”
“Rest when you're weary. Refresh and renew yourself, your body, your mind, your spirit. Then get back to work.”
“Feelings come and feelings go. There is no need to fear them and no need to crave them. Be open to your feelings and experience them while they are here. Then be open to the feelings that will come next. Your feelings are a part of your experience. Yet no mere feeling, however intense it may seem, is your permanent reality.”
“Welcome those big, sticky, complicated problems. In them are your most powerful opportunities.”
“It doesn't matter how much you want. What really matters is how much you want it. The extent and complexity of the problem does not matter was much as does the willingness to solve it.”
“If you so choose, the challenges can make you stronger. If you so choose, the disappointments can make you more determined.”
“Excellence is not a skill, it's an attitude.”
“If you so choose, even the unexpected setbacks can bring new and positive possibilities. If you so choose, you can find value and fulfillment in every circumstance.”
“Don't lower your expectations to meet your performance. Raise your level of performance to meet your expectations.”
“Don't lower your expectations to meet your performance. Raise your level of performance to meet your expectations. Expect the best of yourself, and then do what is necessary to make it a reality.”
“Dare to visualize a world in which your most treasured dreams have become true.”
“Put your energy into building what is creative, valuable and empowering. And you won't have to constantly fight against what is destructive and draining.”
“The more closely you get in touch with your dreams, the more able you are to make them real. The more vividly you consider how you want your world to be, the more real and effective tools you will have for making it so.”
“Success in any endeavor depends on the degree to which it is an expression of your true self.”
“Every day you spend drifting away from your goals is a waste not only of that day, but also of the additional day it takes to regain lost ground.”
“Your destiny is to fulfill those things upon which you focus most intently. So choose to keep your focus on that which is truly magnificent, beautiful, uplifting and joyful. Your life is always moving toward something.”
“What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.”
“You've done it before and you can do it now. See the positive possibilities. Redirect the substantial energy of your frustration and turn it into positive, effective, unstoppable determination.”
