THERE IS ALWAYS ANOTHER CHOICE

You don't have to buy from anyone. You don't have to work at any particular job. You don't have to participate in any given relationship. You can choose. You alone steer the course you choose in the direction of where you want to be today, tomorrow or in any distant time to come. You hold the tiller. You can decide to alter the course of your life at any time. No one can ever take that away from you. You can decide what you want and go after it. It's always your next move.

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS NO CHANCE

 Don't think about the things you can't do. Think about the things you can do. No matter what the level of your ability is, you have more potential than you can ever develop in a lifetime. You have powers you never dreamed of. You can do things you never thought you could do. There are no limitations to what you can do except the limitations of your own mind. Your range of available choices right now is limitless. Look at things as they can be. Never say never.

 LIFE RESPONDS TO YOUR OUTLOOK

The dreams you choose to believe in come to be. When you feel in your innermost being that you will achieve what you set out to do, you open the way for miracles. Choose to believe something good can happen. Expecting it to happen energizes your goal and actually gives it momentum. What you expect to happen, happens. If you expect to succeed, you'll succeed.

 A MOUNTAIN IS CLIMBED ONE STEP AT A TIME

 To attain success or to reach your goal, don't worry about having all the answers in advance. You just need to have a clear idea of your goal and move toward it. Everyone who got where they are had to begin where they were. Your opportunity for success is right in front of you. Don't procrastinate when faced with a difficult problem. Break your problems into parts and handle one part at a time. Develop a tendency toward action. You can make something happen today. Break your big plan for success into small steps and take the first step right away. Success starts with beginning.

ACCEPT CHANGE WITH A SMILE

 Sooner or later you'll experience a crisis in your life, and how you meet it will determine your future happiness and success. Since the beginning of time, everyone has been called upon to meet such a crisis. A closer look will show you that most 'crisis situations' are opportunities to either advance or stay where you are. In fact, most changes in your life will take place out of either 'inspiration' or 'desperation.' Whatever comes your way, give it meaning and transform it into something of value. Your personal growth is the process of responding positively to change. A precious stone cannot be polished without friction, nor humanity perfected without trials.

THE KEY TO YOUR SUCCESS IS DESIRE

 Reality forms around your commitment to succeed. Your desires will in time externalize themselves into concrete fact. If you're willing to pay the price, any of your circumstances will change. If you want something badly enough, you're sure to get it. Obstacles don't matter very much. Pain or other circumstances can be there. But, if you want something badly enough, you'll find a way to get it done. You only have to love a thing greatly to get it. Desire is the fire of life.

SUCCESS IS A MATTER OF EXPECTATION

You must first expect to succeed if you want to succeed. When you expect good things to happen, strangely enough, they will happen. Your expectation energizes your goals and gives them momentum. Since your life will always respond to your outlook, set your goals high. The dreams you choose to believe in will come to be. You can't expect to succeed beyond your wildest expectations unless you begin with some pretty wild expectations.

REALITY IS SOMETHING YOU RISE ABOVE

You're more important than any of your problems. You're bigger than anything that can happen to you. Great things are accomplished when you believe that what's inside of you is superior to your circumstances. What you have outside you counts less than what you have inside you. Courage is a special kind of knowledge. It's the knowledge of how to fear what ought to be feared and how not to fear what ought not to be feared. True courage is a result of reasoning. A brave mind is always impregnable. Nothing external to you has power over you.

WORK IS LOVE MADE VISIBLE 

 Real success is achieved when you like what you do. No one can succeed in any endeavor that they don't like. If you don't love what you're doing, then don't do it. Your chances of success are directly proportional to the degree of pleasure you derive from what you do. Do something that you have a deep personal interest in. Do something you'd enjoy spending twelve to fifteen hours a day working at, and the rest of the time thinking about. Don't set compensation as your goal. Find work you like and the compensation will follow. Work is not your punishment. It's your reward, your strength and your pleasure. When your vocation becomes your vacation, you'll never work another day in your life.

BEING SUCCESSFUL IS A CHOICE YOU MAKE

 

 

 

 

You alone have the responsibility to shape your life.

Once you understand this,

nothing and no one can deny you success.

There's no one to stop you but yourself.

 

More powerful than all the success slogans ever written

is the realization that everyone has but one boss.

That boss is you.

 

Your life will always be to a large extent what you make of it.

No one can cheat you out of ultimate success but you.

 

Success or failure?

It's always your choice.

 

SEE THINGS AS YOU WANT THEM TO BE

 

How can you make your dream come true, if you don't have one?

Visualize your goals and your subconscious will begin to work

toward making your mental pictures come true.

 

You'll gradually grow into any condition you desire,

provided you adjust your mental attitude to mirror

the person who corresponds to those conditions.

 

If you advance with confidence in the direction of your dreams,

and begin to live the life you imagine,

you'll meet with success beyond your wildest imagination.

 

The only way to discover your limits of the possible

is to go beyond them into the impossible.

 

You're the one who can stretch your horizon.

 

 

 

 

 

 

THE HIGHWAY TO SUCCESS IS A TOLL ROAD

 

 

Whatever you want in life,

you must give up something to get it.

The greater the value,

the greater the sacrifice required of you.

 

There's a price to pay if you want to make things better,

and a price you'll pay for just leaving things as they are.

 

Nothing worthwhile comes easily to anyone.

Work, continuous work and hard work,

is the only way to accomplish results that last.

Don't let the fear of change stop you from pursuing your dreams.

 

There is no success at bargain basement prices.

You must pay a price for success.

 

 

DON'T BELIEVE IN MIRACLES, DEPEND ON THEM

 

 

You don't need an explanation for everything.

There are such things as miracles,

events for which there are no ready explanations.

 

Future knowledge may explain these events quite simply.

Any form of sufficiently advanced technology

can be quite indistinguishable from magic

when it's introduced for the first time.

 

Seeing, hearing, feeling are all miracles

as well as each part of you.

Seeing is not always believing.

You know much more than you understand.

 

Have the vision to see invisible things.

 

YOU ARE WHAT YOU THINK

 

 

Whatever you plant in your subconscious mind

and nourish every day with conviction and emotion

will one day become a reality.

 

Constant repetition carries conviction.

Repeat something often enough and it will start to become you.

A change in what you tell yourself

will result in a change in your behavior.

 

What you impress upon your mind,

you'll inevitably become.

Self suggestion will make you master of yourself.

 

 

PROGRESS BEGINS ONE STEP AT A TIME

 

 

There is no sudden leap to greatness.

Your success lies in doing day by day.

Your upward reach will come from working well and carefully.

 

Good work done little by little becomes great work.

The house of success is built brick by brick.

 

Adopt the pace of nature. The secret is patience.

A bottle fills drop by drop.

 

 

IT'S NEVER OVER UNTIL IT'S OVER

 

 

The power to hold on in spite of everything, to endure,

this is the quality of a winner.

Your greatest glory is not in never failing,

but in rising every time you fail.

 

It's your constant and determined effort

that will eventually break down all resistance

and sweep all the barriers before you.

Persistence means taking pains to overcome every obstacle,

to do all that's necessary to reach your goal.

 

All great achievements require time.

Endurance is the crowning quality of success.

 

LOOK AT THINGS AS THEY CAN BE

 

 

Your range of available choices right now has no limits.

The only limits you have are in your mind.

You've got it in you to succeed.

Just make up your mind and stick with it.

 

You weren't born with any limits on your powers

or any set limits to your capacity.

At any moment, you have more possibilities than you can act upon.

 

Imagine your possibilities and your vision expands.

Capture your dreams in your mind and your life becomes full.

Reach out and touch the limits of your being in your mind.

 

You can, because you think you can.

 

TO CHOOSE TIME IS TO SAVE TIME

 

 

You always have enough time if you will but use it wisely.

Your dilemma goes deeper than having a shortage of time,

it's basically a problem of priorities.

Most people leave undone those things that should be done,

while they do things that they shouldn't be doing.

 

Set priorities for your goals.

A major part of successful living lies in your ability to put first things first.

Most major goals are not achieved because people put second things first.

 

Is what you're doing getting you closer to your objectives?

Anything that is wasted effort represents wasted time.

 

Don't serve time; make time serve you.

 

THE KEY TO MASTERY IS SIMPLICITY

 

 

 

Life is really simple,

but we insist on making it complicated.

 

You can increase your understanding of any subject

by progressing from the simple to the complex.

Divide any complex issue into simple parts,

and master each part and no project will be too difficult.

 

By understanding the simple,

you can understand the complex.

Solutions are all simple after you have arrived at them.

But they are simple only when you know what they are.

 

Nothing is more simple than greatness:

for to be simple is to be great.
