QUOTE OF THE WEEK
To the victim, adversity is bad.
To the leader – and warrior – hard times are life’s richest times of growth opportunity and possibility. Use them to fly.
Robin Sharma
The greatest results in life are usually attained by common sense and perseverance.
Owen Feltham
QUOTE OF THE WEEK
We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.
Aristotle
QUOTE OF THE WEEK
Considering that our habits create our life, there is arguably no single skill that is more important for you to learn and master than controlling your habits. You must identify, implement, and maintain the habits necessary for creating the results you want in your life, while learning how to let go of any negative habits which are holding you back from achieving your true potential.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK
Life must be a challenge. Only then is it exciting. In an obstacle race, you are forced to surmount all the obstacles: to jump over the hurdles, go through the barrels, crawl under the rugs, climb over walls.
What would happen if, to avoid all that, you went around all the obstacles and asked for the winner’s cup? Would they give it to you? No. They would say, “You must go back and face all the obstacles.”
… Make your life as exciting as possible, but always think of it as fun. The adversities as well as the harmony should be enjoyable. Don’t become sober and morose and have a castor oil face in the name of spirituality. Just be happy. Jump with joy. Even if you make a mistake, say, “Hey, I did this? Great! What a wonderful lesson I learned!” If you really want to, you can make everything fun.
Sri Swami Satchidananda
QUOTE OF THE WEEK
If you always put limits on everything you do, physical or anything else, it will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them.
Bruce Lee
QUOTE OF THE WEEK
Everything is a choice. This is life’s greatest truth and its hardest lesson. It is a great truth because it reminds us of our power. Not power over others, but the often untapped power to be ourselves and to live the life we have imagined. It is a hard lesson, because it causes us to realize we have chosen the life we are living right now. It is perhaps frightening for us to think that we have chosen to live our life exactly as it is today. Frightening because we may not like what we find when we look at our lives today. But it is also liberating, because we can now begin to choose what we will find when we look at our life in the tomorrows that lie unlived before us. What will you see when you look at your life ten years from now? What will you choose?”
Matthew Kelly
QUOTE OF THE WEEK
I believe in the basics: attention to, and perfection of, tiny details that might be commonly overlooked. They may seem trivial, perhaps even laughable to those who don’t understand, but they aren’t. They are fundamental to your progress in basketball, business, and life. They are the difference between champions and near champions.
John Wooden
QUOTE OF THE WEEK
Destiny is not just a matter of chance, it’s a matter of choice; it’s not a thing to be waited for, it’s a thing to be achieved.
William Jennings Bryan
QUOTE OF THE WEEK
Strength doesn’t come from what you can do. It comes from overcoming the things you once thought you couldn’t.
Rikki Rogers
QUOTE OF THE WEEK
Concentrate all your thoughts upon the work at hand. The sun’s rays do not burn until brought
to a focus.
Alexander Graham Bell
QUOTE OF THE WEEK
Confidence is a resolute state of mind by which you believe nothing is impossible. Confidence is not a guarantee of success, but a pattern of thinking that will improve your likelihood of success, a tenacious search for ways to make things work.
John Eliot
QUOTE OF THE WEEK
You can’t outwit fate by standing on the sidelines placing little side bets about the outcome of life. Either you wade in and risk everything you have to play the game or you don’t play at all. And if you don’t play you can’t win.
Judith McNaught
QUOTE OF THE WEEK
Your Success will not be measure by how many days you get to “Take Off,” but instead by how many days you “Take On”
Martin Rooney
THE QUOTE OF THE WEEK
The only limit to our realization of tomorrow will be our doubts of today. Let us move forward with strong and active faith.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Quote of the week
I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes. Because if you are making mistakes, then you are making new things, trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing the world. You’re doing things you’ve never done before, and more importantly, you’re doing something.
Neil Gaiman
