Failure will never overtake me if my determination to succeed is strong enough – Og Mandino

Setback and failure are not the same. If you hit a snag, it doesn’t mean to sit down and never get off the bench again. The reason we procrastinate is because our determination is not strong. What do you really want in life?

The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph – Thomas Paine

When you struggle, you grow. No great champion or successful person has ever been handed anything. When you cross the finish line of a marathon, you feel like you’ve really beaten the odds… and beaten yourself. It’s the same in all conflict. Victory is sweeter when it hurts

Perseverance is not a long race; it is many short races one after the other – Walter Elliot

Every marathon runner will tell you the same thing. You are trying to win each mile. A marathon is 26 miles. It’s not a 26 mile venture it is 26 mile long treks. When you finish mile one, you start a new one. That goes on until you cross the finish line.

A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others – Ayn Rand

Sometimes we get so beat down by the success of those around us, whether we know them personally or through the headlines. We see that everyone else is doing it. Stop being competitive, and start being creative. Create your own success.

The only people who never tumble are those who never mount the high wire. – Oprah Winfrey

If you are afraid of falling, you will never get to great heights. Stop making excuses. Stop waiting for that perfect moment, that golden opportunity. Those moments do not come. You make them happen.

“To improve is to change; to be perfect is to change often.” – Winston Churchill

If you want to get better at anything, you have to accept change. Change is a natural and beautiful process that leads to growth both internally and externally. Without that change, you would become stagnant and stale. Stop holding on to the status quo, that’s not achieving anything.
