SECRET OF SUCCESS AND GREATNESS IN LIFE REVEALED - READ


"Nothing is more noble, nothing more venerable than fidelity. Faithfulness and truth are the most sacred excellences and endowments of the human mind."

"There will be times in life when impossibility is felt, but then there are dreams - and dreams allow us possibility."

"Know how to listen, and you will profit even from those who talk badly."

"The essence of life is finding something you really love and then making the daily experience worthwhile."

"No one lives long enough to learn everything they need to learn starting from scratch. To be successful, we absolutely, positively have to find people who have already paid the price to learn the things that we need to learn to achieve our goals."

"A tulip doesn't strive to impress anyone. It doesn't struggle to be different than a rose. It doesn't have to. It is different. And there's room in the garden for every flower."

"You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you'll discover will be wonderful. What you'll discover will be yourself."

"Success will not lower its standard to us. We must raise our standard to success."

"Success is the good fortune that comes from aspiration, desperation, perspiration and inspiration."

"I have become my own version of an optimist. If I can't make it through one door, I'll go through another door - or I'll make a door. Something terrific will come no matter how dark the present."

"Pay no attention to what the critics say... Remember, a statue has never been set up in honour of a critic!"

"The highest reward for a person's toil is not what they get for it, but what they become by it".

"You must give some time to your fellow men. Even if it's a little thing, do something for others - something for which you get no pay but the privilege of doing it".

"People may not remember what you did for them, or even what you said, but they will always remember how you made them feel."

“Knowledge speaks. Wisdom listens.”

"A successful man is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks others have thrown at him."

"No one lives long enough to learn everything they need to learn starting from scratch. To be successful, we absolutely, positively have to find people who have already paid the price to learn the things that we need to learn to achieve our goals."

"Discovery consists of seeing what everybody has seen and thinking what nobody has thought."

"The secret of greatness is simple: do better work than any other man in your field - and keep on doing it."

"Ability may get you to the top, but it takes character to keep you there."


"The best thing to give to your enemy is forgiveness; to an opponent, tolerance; to a friend, your heart; to your child, a good example; to a father, deference; to your mother, conduct that will make her proud of you; to yourself, respect; to all men, charity."

“You don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great. “
