Work ethic is important, because, unlike intelligence, athleticism, or charisma, or any natural attribute, it’s a choice.

We learn more from failure than we do from success.

Never let a dark chapter make you forget that better days are ahead of you. Your story is far from over.

You can have results or excuses, not both

You can be shown the path, but only you can make the first step.

A book a day keeps the stupidity away.

Hope might be a good breakfast, but it makes a very poor dinner

Start, struggle, fail, fix and learn. Repeat.

Time is your friend, impulse is your enemy.

It is never too late to become what you might have been

It always seems impossible until it's done.

Try and do one thing each day that you would really rather not do.

Lose an hour in the morning and you will spend all day looking for it.

Each day is an opportunity to improve. Aim to be that little bit better than yesterday and better tomorrow than today.

Success is not final and failure is not fatal. It is the courage to continue that counts.
