There’s no greater investment. You must expect great things of yourself before you can do them. The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched–they must be felt with the heart. We know what we are, but know not what we may be. Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up. I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the water to create many ripples. Start by doing what’s necessary; then do what’s possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible. Try to be a rainbow in someone’s cloud. Don’t let the fear of losing be greater than the excitement of winning. Life isn’t about wearing suits or pleasing stockholders. It’s about being true to yourself, your ideas and focusing on the essentials. Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world. I can’t change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails to always reach my destination. In the end, it’s not the years in your life that count. It’s the life in your years. The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it. Put your heart, mind, and soul into even your smallest acts. This is the secret of success. Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection, we can catch excellence. The most important thing is to enjoy your life–to be happy–it’s all that matters.
Anyone who has ever made anything of importance was disciplined. Such strong word make a lasting impact on young minds, making them understand the great importance of discipline. A person’s ability to self-regulate enables them to carry out their duties faithfully, diligently, and consistently.
If we don’t have this capability, we risk a collapse in our endeavors. And the force of driving ourselves to our goals makes us achieve them in the long run.
Don’t spend time beating on a wall, hoping to transform it into a door.
The first step to being motivated is to accept the current situation. Because of that realization, we learn to be in the present, see things as they are, and then think for the future course of actions.
However, it doesn’t imply accepting the state of helplessness and leaving destiny up to fate. The point is to direct our energies in the right direction.
Optimism is the one quality more associated with success and happiness than any other.
Focusing on the negative and obsessing over the awful things and worst-case scenarios drains our energy and makes us less effective, engaged, happy, and capable of getting things done.
You can make a huge difference in your happiness and career success by taking a different route and developing the ability to look at the bright side of things, even in the darkest of times.
Be amazing today! Explore new opportunities and never give up !!
