The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing – Stephen R. Covey

Either I will find a way, or I will make one – Philip Sidney

The way to get your dreams is not just going to magically light up before you like a yellow brick road. You have to pave the road to your own success through hard work. You can’t give up on the first or second or tenth failure. You’re worth more than that.

Do the difficult things while they are easy and do the great things while they are small – Lao Tzu

Things look difficult now, but they can be done. In fact, this is the easiest these things will ever be. If you start with doing little things, it makes the next step smaller. You can’t accomplish everything in a few short steps. It is a marathon.
