    “There are a thousand hacking at the branches of evil to one who is striking at the root.” ~ Henry David Thoreau

      “There are only two days in the year that nothing can be done. One is called yesterday and the other is called tomorrow, so today is the right day to love, believe, do and mostly live.” ~ Dalai Lama

        “It’s okay to be sad when you mess up, but don’t dwell for too long. The mistake has already been made, and you can’t erase the fact that it happened. You can either learn from it or mope about it. The choice is yours, but remember, we are only human; we were born to make mistakes.  Simply put, if you have never made a mistake in your life, then that means that you have never taken a risk.  Taking risks means that you go outside of your comfort zone – that you go outside of your boundaries. The most successful people are the ones who are not afraid to give it their all and possibly humiliate themselves greatly in front of others.  It’s like that one saying, ‘The person who asks a question is a fool for five minutes, but the person who never asks and remains silent is a fool forever.’  You choose the way you want to live your life.” ~ Cynthia Amy Tang

          “People want to be recognized.  They want to be celebrated in some way.  They want to be made to feel as if they really do count for something.  And they want a place where they can belong in the community that stands for something more than just an enterprise that makes money.” ~ Martin Coles, Starbucks International President

            “This is the true joy of life, the being used up for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one;  being a force of nature instead of a feverish, selfish little clot of ailments and grievances, complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy.” ~ George Bernard Shaw

              “Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.” ~ Howard Thurman

                “Never let success get in your head, or failure get into your heart.” ~ Unknown

                  “When we were five, they asked us what we wanted to be when we grew up. Our things were answers like astronaut, president, or in my case, princess… When we were ten, they asked us again. We answered – rock star, cowboy, or in my case, gold medalist… But now that we’ve grown up, they want a more serious answer. Well, how about this… Who the hell knows? This isn’t a time to make hard and fast decisions. This is the time to make mistakes. Take the wrong train and get stuck somewhere chill. Fall in love – a lot. Major in philosophy because there’s no way to make a career out of that. Change your mind. Then change it again because nothing is permanent. So make as many mistakes as you can. That way, someday, when they ask again what we want to be… We won’t have to guess. We’ll know.” ~ Graduation Speech From The Twilight Saga: Eclipse

                    “To attract attractive people, you must be attractive. To attract powerful people, you must be powerful. To attract committed people, you must be committed. Instead of going to work on them, you go to work on yourself. If you become, you can attract.” ~ Jim Rohn

                      “He is a wise man who does not grieve for the things which he has not, but rejoices for those which he has.”  ~ Epictetus

                        “For fast-acting relief, try slowing down.”  ~ Lily Tomlin

                          “The ability to simplify means to eliminate the unnecessary so that the necessary may speak.”  ~ Hans Hofmann

                            “I find television to be very educating.  Every time somebody turns on the set, I go in the other room and read a book.”  ~ Groucho Marx

                              “I know of no more encouraging fact than the unquestionable ability of man to elevate his life by conscious endeavor.” ~ Unknown

                                “What you choose to focus your mind on is critical because you will become what you think about most of the time.” ~ Noel Peebles

                                  “Nothing can add more power to your life than concentrating all your energies on a limited set of targets.” ~ Nido Qubein

                                    “Often he who does too much does too little.” ~ Italian Proverb
