When life knocks you down, try to land on your back. Because if you can look up, you can get up. Let your reason get you back up.
The only limits to the possibilities in your life tomorrow are the buts you use today.
You will win if you don't quit
If you are carrying strong feelings about something that happened in your past, they may hinder your ability to live in the present.
Life has no limitations, except the ones you make.
The world is waiting for you to wake up to the person you are called to be. Stop listening to the negative inner conversation that's causing you to play small. Focus your mind on positive thoughts, possibilities and solutions that can move you forward. Tap into your creativity and determination and stay busy. Stay focused.
Know your gifts and share them.
If you set goals and go after them with all the determination you can muster, your gifts will take you places that will amaze you.
If you do what is easy, your life will be hard
Just because Fate doesn't deal you the right cards, it doesn't mean you should give up. It just means you have to play the cards you get to their maximum potential.
Keep the faith...that the best is yet to come. Keep the faith that the next extraordinary version of you is being crafted even now...that nothing can deter you from keeping your commitment to achieving your goals set for today...that you can better your best! Keep the faith. Move forward in spite of your fears and despite any evidence to the contrary. Believe that IT'S POSSIBLE!!
Don't confuse who you are with the results that you produce.
When it comes to success, it will come when it comes. A delay does not mean a denial.
Accept responsibility for your life. Know that it is you who will get you where you want to go, no one else.
