Remember, a person’s character is not only judged by the company he or she keeps but also by the company he or she avoids.

Remember the greatest motivator is belief. We have to inculcate in ourselves the belief that we are responsible for our actions and behavior. When people accept responsibility, everything improves: quality, productivity, relationships and teamwork.

Our thoughts are causes. You sow a thought, you reap an action. You sow an action, you reap a habit. You sow a habit, you reap a character. You sow a character, you reap a destiny. It all starts with a thought.

Some people consider themselves a shade better because they do not support the wrong; however, they lack the conviction to oppose. They do not realize that by not opposing they are actually supporting.

Realisation’ means it is an experience. Outside forces cannot make me feel successful. I have to feel it within myself. It is internal not external. That is why what often appears success externally may be total hollowness internally.

As a young cartoonist, Walt Disney faced many rejections from newspaper editors who said he had no talent. One day a minister at a church hired him to draw some cartoons. Disney was working out of a small rodent-infested shed near the church. Seeing a small mouse inspired him to draw a new cartoon. That was the start of Mickey Mouse.

Looking for the positive does not necessarily mean overlooking faults. being a positive thinker does not mean one has to agree or accept everything. It only means that a person is solution-focused.

An opportunity only knocks once. The next one may be better or worse, but never the same one. That is why it is so crucial to make the right decision at the right time. A right decision at the wrong time becomes a wrong decision.

Progressive’ means that success is a journey, not a destination. It’s an ongoing process. We never arrive.

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

Schools are a fountain of knowledge: some students come to drink, some to sip and others just to gargle.

SUCCESS does not mean an absence of problems, it is overcoming problems. Success is not measured by how high we go up in life, but how many times we bounce back when we fall down.

The tragedy is that there are many walking encyclopedias who are living failures.

You may be disappointed if you fail, but you will be doomed if you don’t try. – Beverley Sills.

If you want to build a positive attitude, then associate with people of high moral character and read books that lead you to positive thinking.

Success is the progressive realisation of a worthy goal.

Oh, how a small portion of earth will hold us when we are dead, who ambitiously seek after the whole world while we are living!

Ability will get you success; character will keep you successful.

Motivation is like fire – unless you keep adding fuel to it, it dies. Your fuel is your belief in your inner values.
