Believe in Luck

Wednesday, October 13, 2010

I'm a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it.

Good luck is what happens when hard work encounters opportunity.

  


Don't Worry! Be Happy!

Tuesday, October 12, 2010

Be happy. Talk happiness. Happiness calls out responsive gladness in others. There is enough sadness in the world without yours . never doubt the excellence and permanence of what is yet to be. Join the great company of those who make the barren places of life fruitful with kindness. Your success and happiness lie in you. The great enduring realities are love and service. Resolve to keep happy and your joy and you shall form an invincible host against difficulties.
~ Helen Keller

  


Do Your Best!

Monday, October 11, 2010

True success is not necessarily about being the best at all cost. It's about DOING your best at all times. If you do that long enough, who knows, you might just end up being the best.
~ 'Tope Popoola

When I was in the Boy Scouts a few years back, the Scoutmaster would say"Do your best, nobody can do better"

Add this to the childhood ditty: "Good, better best. Never let it rest. Until your good is better and your better is your best!"

Sunday, October 10, 2010

Most barriers to your success are man-made. And most often, you're the man who made them.

- Frank Tyger
