Though no one can go back and make a new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new end. Until you try, you do not know what you cannot do. Have no fear of perfection you will never reach it. Quit now, you will never make it. If you disregard this advice, you will be halfway there. Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff …and it’s All Small Stuff. Success or failure depends more upon attitude than upon capacity. Successful people act as though they have accomplished or are enjoying something. Soon it becomes a reality. Act, look, feel successful, conduct yourself accordingly, and you will be amazed at the positive results. Make the most of today. Translate your good intentions into actual deeds. Do not compromise yourself. You are all you have got.

You are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it true. You may have to work for it, however. You cannot cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water. Do not let yourself indulge in vain wishes. That which does not kill us makes us stronger. If you do not do it excellently, do not do it at all. Because if it is not excellent, it will not be profitable or fun, and if you are not in business for fun or profit, what the hell are you doing there? Believing is one thing, doing another. Many talk like the sea but their lives are stagnant marshes. Others raise their heads above the mountain tops, while their souls cling to the dark walls of caves Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no ones definition of your life, but define yourself. Learning is finding out what you already know. Doing is demonstrating that you know it. Teaching is reminding others that they know just as well as you. You are all learners, doers, teachers. In the long run, men hit only what they aim at. Therefore, they had better aim at something high.

The way to be safe is never to be secure. When one door closes another opens. Expect that new door to reveal even greater wonders and glories and surprises. Feel yourself grow with every experience. And look for the reason for it Until you try, you do not know what you cannot do. Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff …and it’s All Small Stuff. Do not be afraid to take big steps. You cannot cross a chasm in two small jumps.
