“People
who lack the clarity, courage, or determination to follow their own dreams will
often find ways to discourage yours. When you change for the better, the people
around you will be inspired to change also....but only after doing their best
to make you stop. Live your truth and don't EVER stop.”

Steve Maraboli, Life, the Truth, and Being Free

of measurement — that they seek power, success and wealth for themselves and
admire them in others, and that they underestimate what is of true value in
life.”

“Successful
people have no fear of failure. But unsuccessful people do. Successful people
have the resilience to face up to failure—learn the lessons and adapt from it.”

“Success
is determined not by whether or not you face obstacles, but by your reaction to
them. And if you look at these obstacles as a containing fence, they become
your excuse for failure. If you look at them as a hurdle, each one strengthens
you for the next.”
