You will move in the direction you are facing.
Each day will be triumphant only when your smiles bring forth smiles from others.
First, recognize that you are not a sheep who will be satisfied with only a few nibbles of dry grass or with following the herd as they wander aimlessly, bleating and whining, all of their days. Separate yourself now from the multitude of humanity so that you will be able to control your own destiny. Remember that what others think and say and do need never influence what you think and say and do.
I will greet this day with love in my heart.
You do not live in a vacuum nor can you harvest the better fruits of life without help and ENCOURAGEMENT from others.
Action will destroy your procrastination.
Deliver more than you are getting paid to do. The victory of success will be half won when you learn the secret of putting out more than is expected in all that you do. Make yourself so valuable in your work that eventually you will become indispensable. Exercise your privilege to go the extra mile, and enjoy all the rewards you receive.
Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold.
Sound character provides the power with which a person may ride the emergencies of life instead of being overwhelmed by them. Failure is... the highway to success.
If I persist, if I continue to try, if I continue to charge forward, I will succeed!
I have been given eyes to see and a mind to think, and now I know a great secret of life, for I perceive, at last, that all my problems, discouragements , and heartaches are, in truth, great opportunities in disguise.
The greatest secret in the world is that you only have to be a small measurable amount better than mediocrity ...and you've got it made.
Act now, for now is all you have.
The secret of success is to triple your rate of failure.
