2. Ralph Waldo Emmerson
"To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent
people and the affection of children...to leave the world a
better place...to know even one life has breathed easier
because you have lived. This is to have succeeded."
--Ralph Waldo Emerson
"Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you
could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in;
forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day;
begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be
encumbered with your old nonsense."
--Ralph Waldo Emerson
3. Ross Perot

slacking off at our moment of greatest
accomplishment. As you become successful,
you will need a great deal of self-discipline not
to lose your sense of balance, humility, and
commitment."
--Ross Perot
4. Mark Victor Hansen
"Don't wait until everything is just right.
It will never be perfect. There will always be
challenges, obstacles and less than
perfect conditions. So what. Get
started now. With each step you
take, you will grow stronger and
stronger, more and more skilled,
more and more self-confident
and more and more successful.“
--Mark Victor Hansen

breaths; In feelings, not in figures on a dial.
We should count time by heart throbs. He
most lives who thinks most, feels the noblest,
acts the best."
--David Bailey
6. Robert Louis Stevenson
"That man is successful who has lived well, laughed often, and
loved much, who has
gained the respect of the
intelligent men and the love of
children; who has filled his niche
and accomplished his task; who
leaves the world better than he found
it, whether by an improved poppy, a
perfect poem, or a rescued soul; who
never lacked appreciation of earth's beauty
or failed to express it; who looked for the best in others and
gave the best he had."
--Robert Louis Stevenson

"If you cry because the
sun has gone
out of your life, your
tears will prevent you
from seeing the stars.“

is to wake up.“

we do.”
