’Realisation’ means it is an experience.

’Worthiness’ determines the quality of our journey.

Zealand. Worthiness is what gives meaning and fulfillment. Success without fulfillment is empty.

don’t know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.

would rather be criticised by fools than appreciated by cheats and crooks.

aspiration, inspiration and perspiration

Excellence is continuous improvement.

It’s a lot easier to improve one per cent in hundred different areas than to improve hundred per cent in any one area. That is the winning edge!

Success is not measured by our position in life but by the obstacles we overcame to get there.

Success in life is not determined by how we are doing compared with others, but by how we are doing compared with what we are capable of doing.

Success is not measured by how high we go up in life, but rather by how many times we bounce back when we fall down.

Success is not an absence of problems, it is overcoming them.

But to Lincoln, defeat was a detour, not a dead end. The greatest people in the world turn a setback into a comeback.

Successful people don’t do great things, they only do small things in a great way.

One day a partially deaf four years old child came home with a note in his pocket from his teacher, “Your Tommy is too stupid to learn, get him out of school.” His mother read the note and answered, “My Tommy is not too stupid to learn, I will teach him myself.” And that Tommy grew up to be the great Thomas Edison. Thomas Edison had only three months of formal schooling.

They succeeded in spite of problems, not in the absence of them. But to negative thinkers, it appears as though they just “got lucky.”

We never pay the price for success. We reap the rewards of success. We actually pay the price for failure.

Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved. – William Jennings Bryan

we are all free to the point of making choices. but, after we make a choice, the choice controls the chooser.

Series of positive choices is called success and series of negative choices is called failure.

We can’t choose the direction of the wind, but we can choose how we set our sail.

ATTRIBUTES OF SUCCESS Path to success

Ability without dependability is a liability.

QUALITIES THAT MAKE A PERSON...

“Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, the mind can achieve.”

When you want success as badly as you wanted air underwater, you will have it.” There is no other secret. This is called the burning desire. In the business community, we call it the fire in the belly.

Commitment

Integrity and wisdom are the two pillars on which to build and keep commitments.

When we play to win, we play

out of inspiration vs. when we play not to lose, we play out of desperation.

Commitment makes people who play to win prepare harder.

The quality of a person’s life is in direct proportion to their commitment to excellence, regardless of their chosen field of endeavor.

Accepting responsibilities involves taking risks and being accountable, which is sometimes uncomfortable.

You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.

When things go wrong, negative people play the blame game.
