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

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift—that's why it's called 'the present

The easiest person to deceive is yourself.

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

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

The greatest mistake we make is living in constant fear that we will make one.

Don’t compare yourself to others. Compare yourself to the person you were yesterday.

Instead of finding reasons why you can't, find reasons why you can.

No matter how bad it gets, you’re still way ahead of those who haven’t even started.

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

Failure to prepare = preparing to fail

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

In order to become better than anybody else you must first become better than yourself.

Never underestimate the importance of small steps. small steps = big changes. 

Focus on progress, not perfection. Practise a little bit every day - little and often  Slow and steady wins the race.
