Some of my favorite Quotes

Don't quit when the hill is steepest,For your goal is almost nigh;
Don't quit, for you're not a failure,til u fail to try . (Unknown)

"If you have made mistakes, even serious ones, there is always another chance for you. What we call failure is not the falling down but the staying down." by Mary Pickford

When faced with making a choice between alternatives, it pays to put some time and effort into making the best choice.Then after the choice is made, it's time to put your effort into making the most of that choice.Certainly it is important to put thought and care into the decisions you make. Be sure to also put just as much energy into the living and fulfillment of those choices.Making the best choice is a great start. Yet it is only a start.The value of any choice comes from following through on it.The actions you take to support and carry out the choices you have made are what give those choices real meaning in your life.The way your decision works out depends on what you do to make it work out. As important as the decision itself may have been, it is not nearly as important as what you do to bring it to life.You've made the choice.Now is your opportunity to make it real.~~Ralph Marston (greatday.com)

Life is 10 percent what happens to me and 90 percent how I react to it. Coach Lou Holtz

The setting sun, the sound of birds' singing and, most importantly, I miss meeting myself. I am constantly changing, and if I don't spend time with myself in the here and now, I will never get to appreciate who I truly am because I am too busy focusing on who I want to be." ~Gary Barnes

We create the situations & then we give our power away by blaming the other person for our frustration. No person, no place & no thing has any power over us for "WE" are the only thinkers in our mind." ~Louise Hay

Conquering your fears through actionLife brings with it many doubts and fears. But the unknown and the untried have held more people back than any lack of ability. Most successes are never seen because they're never attempted. The courage to face your fears can build momentum that creates magic. Each time you overcome an obstacle, a fear or a step back, you gain confidence. Every small victory helps you feel more certain of yourself and your direction, pushing you further and faster than you ever thought possible. You can do it! What's holding you back? True, fears are intimidating. So start small. Believe in yourself and take one small swipe at your fear today just to see what happens. If you can't talk yourself past the "point of no return", get a friend to help. In the end, half of the doing is in the deciding. If you stumble, don't be afraid to brush yourself off and jump back inI believe that anyone can conquer fear by doing the things he fears to do, provided he keeps doing them until he gets a record of successful experiences behind him.~~Eleanor Roosevelt, human rights advocate

There are two primary choices in life....to accept conditions as they exist, OR accept responsibility for changing them.~~Denis Waitley
