    “Do yourself a favor, and realize that there’s no technique in the world that will save you. There are no pills, no secrets, no passwords on the path to greatness. You’ve got to embrace the pain, push the threshold, and feel the suck, and then you’ve got to muster the courage to go back six times a week.” ~ Jon Gilson

      “How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard.” ~ Winnie the Pooh

        “No horse gets anywhere until he is harnessed.

        No steam or gas ever drives anything until it is confined.

        No Niagara is ever turned into light and power until it is tunneled.

        No life ever grows great until it is focused, dedicated, disciplined.”

        ~ Henry Emerson Fosdick

          “Divorce the past to marry the present and be blessed with a lovely child of future.”~Anuj Somany

              “Leaders do not avoid, repress, or deny conflict, but rather see it as an opportunity.” ~ Warren Bennis

                “Anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it stands than to anything on which it is poured.” ~ Mahatma Gandhi

                    “One man cannot do right in one department of life whilst he is occupied in doing wrong in any other department. Life is one indivisible whole.” ~ Mahatma Gandhi

                      “If you raise your standards but don’t really believe you can meet them, you’ve already sabotaged yourself. You won’t even try; you’ll be lacking the sense of certainty that allows you to tap the deepest capacity that’s within you… Our beliefs are like unquestioned commands, telling us how things are, what’s possible and impossible and what we can and can not do. They shape every action, every thought and every feeling that we experience. As a result, changing our belief systems is central to making any real and lasting change in our lives.” ~ Anthony Robbins

                      Kimo’s Hawaiian Rules

                        Never judge a day by the weather

                        The best things in life aren’t things

                        Tell the truth – there’s less to remember

                        Speak softly and wear a loud shirt

                        Goals are deceptive – the unaimed arrow never misses

                        He who dies with the most toys – still dies

                        Age is relative – when you’re over the hill, you pick up speed

                        There are two ways to be rich – make more or desire less

                        Beauty is internal – looks mean nothing

                        No Rain – No Rainbows

                          “No matter how busy you may think you are, you must find time for reading, or surrender yourself to self-chosen ignorance.” ~ Confucius

                            “Leadership is communicating to people their worth and potential so clearly that they come to see it in themselves.” ~ Stephen Covey

                              “My temptation is emotional, and resisting will further my needed weight loss and strengthen my character.  Furthermore, nothing tastes as good as thin feels.” ~ Stephen Covey

                                “Instead of wondering when your next vacation is, you ought to set up a life you don’t need to escape from.” ~ Seth Godin

                                  “When the morning’s freshness has been replaced by the weariness of midday, when the leg muscles quiver under the strain, the climb seems endless, and, suddenly, nothing will go quite as you wish – it is then that you must not hesitate.” ~ Dag Hammarskjold

                                  ‘Tis the Set of the Sail — or — One Ship Sails East

                                    But to every mind there openeth,
                                    A way, and way, and away,
                                    A high soul climbs the highway,
                                    And the low soul gropes the low,
                                    And in between on the misty flats,
                                    The rest drift to and fro.

                                    But to every man there openeth,
                                    A high way and a low,
                                    And every mind decideth,
                                    The way his soul shall go.

                                    One ship sails East,
                                    And another West,
                                    By the self-same winds that blow,
                                    ‘Tis the set of the sails
                                    And not the gales,
                                    That tells the way we go.

                                    Like the winds of the sea
                                    Are the waves of time,
                                    As we journey along through life,
                                    ‘Tis the set of the soul,
                                    That determines the goal,
                                    And not the calm or the strife.

                                    ~ Ella Wheeler Wilcox

                                      “The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice.  And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds.” ~ R.D. Laing

                                        “Between stimulus and response there is a space.  In that space lies our freedom and power to choose our response.  In those choices lie our growth and our happiness.” ~ Victor Frankl

                                          “All children are born geniuses; 9,999 out of every 10,000 are swiftly, inadvertently degeniusized by grownups.” ~ Buckminster Fuller
