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

Everything that happens was once a dream.

You're not in competition with anyone but yourself. Outdo your past, not other people.

There is great wisdom in being able to realise that you don’t understand something before it goes too far.

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

A hero is no braver than an ordinary man, but he is braver five minutes longer.

Work on your weaknesses until they are your strengths and work on your strengths until they are second nature.

Go as far as you can see, when you get there, you’ll be able to see further

Whenever you find yourself doubting how far you can go, just remember how far you have come.

Your attitude is everything. Pick a good one.

There is no elevator to success, you have to take the stairs.

Procrastination is the thief of time and the enemy of success.

We all have two lives. The second begins when we realise we only have one. 

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than the things you did do

I think, therefore I am.
