Perseverance Clarity of purpose exposes the foundation of the inner heart. The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of knowledge, but rather in a lack of will. Success Some people dream of success ... while others wake up and work hard at it. Success is a journey, not a destination. The harder you work ... the luckier you get. The key to happiness is having dreams ... the key to success is making dreams come true. To laugh often and love much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the approbation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to give one's self; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or redeemed social condition; to have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived — This is to have succeeded. Ralph Waldo Emerson Vision A hundred years from now it will not matter what my bank account was, the sort of house I lived in, or the kind of car I drove ... but the world may be different because I was important in the life of a child. Believe in yourself, your neighbours, your work, your ultimate attainment of more complete happiness. It is only the farmer who faithfully plants seeds in the spring who reaps a harvest in the autumn. ... B C Forbes No one can predict to what heights you can soar. Even you will not know until you spread your wings. Wisdom Discontent comes in proportion to knowledge. The more you know the more you realize you don't know. Will Rogers True wisdom lies in gathering the precious things out of each day as it goes by. ... E S Bouton We should be careful to get out of an experience only the wisdom that is in it ... The cat that sits down on a hot stove lid will never sit down on a hot stove lid again — and that is well; but also she will never sit down on a cold one any more.
