Remember that the most difficult tasks are consummated, not by a single explosive burst of energy or effort, but by the constant daily application of the best you have within you.

You can never win when you wear the ugly cloak of self-pity and the sour sound of whining.

---

So long as I can laugh, never will I be poor.

---

Action will destroy your procrastination.

---

Count your blessings. Once you realize how valuable you are and how much you have going for you, the smiles will return, the sun will break out, the music will play, and you will finally be able to move forward the life that God intended for you with grace, strength, courage, and confidence.

I will love the light for it shows me the way, yet I will endure the darkness because it shows me the stars.

---

Do not listen to those who weep and complain, for their disease is contagious.

---

I will act now. Success will not wait. If I delay, success will become wed to another and lost to me forever. This is the time. This is the place. I am the person.

---

How do I change? If I feel depressed I will sing. If I feel sad I will laugh. If I feel ill I will double my labor. If I feel fear I will plunge ahead. If I feel inferior I will wear new garments. If I feel uncertain I will raise my voice. If I feel poverty I will think of wealth to come. If I feel incompetent I will think of past success. If I feel insignificant I will remember my goals. Today I will be the master of my emotions.

True security lies not in the things one has, but in the things one can do without.
