Failure is delay, not defeat. It is a temporary

"Failure should be our teacher, not our undertaker. Failure is delay, not defeat. It is a temporary detour, not a dead end. Failure is something we can avoid only by saying nothing, doing nothing, and being nothing."

Denis Waitley

Courage vs. Fear

People with moral courage rarely get medals, but it is the best marker of true character and a virtue others can be proud of.

"Courage is not the absence of fear but the resistance of fear, the mastery of fear."
Mark Twain

"The enemy is not what we fear; it is fear itself. If our insecurities and anxieties cause us to lose confidence in the power of virtue, we will lose something very precious."
President Franklin D. Roosevelt

NEVER GIVE UP

"When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hold on a minute longer, NEVER GIVE UP then, for that is just the place and time that the tide WILL TURN."

Harriet Beecher Stowe
1811-1896, Novelist

passion for helping others

"Catch a passion for helping others and a richer life will come back to you!"

William H. Danforth

Paint Success Pictures in Your Mind

"When you paint success pictures in your mind, you initiate an inner process whereby your attitudes, hopes, aspirations, and enthusiasm are elevated in response to an image of a more promising future. Every person who aspires must first sell themselves hope, the promise of a better life."

U.S. Andersen
Author and Speaker

Pressure

"Pressure is a word that is misused in our vocabulary. When you start thinking of pressure, it's because you've started to think of failure."

Tommy Lasorda, American Baseball Manager
