ABILITY

God does not begin by asking us about our ability,
but only about our availability,
and if we then prove our dependability,
he will increase our capability!


Neal A Maxwell

ACHIEVEMENT
  
Achievement seems to be connected with action.
Successful men and women keep moving.
They make mistakes but they don't quit.


Conrad Hilton
American Hotelier
1887 - 1979



Four steps to achievement:
Plan purposefully
Prepare prayerfully
Proceed positively
Pursue persistently

 
William A. Ward



The greatest achievements can only be built
on the foundations of great goals and great aspirations,
and it is infinitely more pleasurable, exciting and rewarding
to live with great dreams
than to exist cautiously with lesser aspirations.


DeWitt C. Smith


I have more respect for the fellow with a single idea who gets there
than for the fellow with a thousand ideas who does nothing
.

ACTION
  
Some people dream about the future
but don't do much to move into it with power.
They don't realize that what they do - or don't do - now
will profoundly affect their future.
 
Paul V. Johnson




Once you know what you want
it won't make any difference to you or anyone else unless you act,
taking the steps you need to take
to reach your goals and fulfill your dreams!
 
Jace Carlton


 

Often the difference between a successful person and a failure
is not one has better abilities or ideas,
but the courage that one has to bet on one's ideas,
to take a calculated risk - and to act
.

Maxwell Maltz
American Cosmetic Surgeon and Author
1899 - 1975

  


What we think, or what we know, or what we believe,
is, in the end, of little consequence.
The only consequence is what we do
.

John Ruskin
British Author, Poet, Artist, Art Critic, Sage Writer and Social Critic
1819 - 1900

  


We should be taught not to wait for inspiration to start a thing.
Action always generates inspiration.
I
nspiration seldom generates action.

Frank Tibolt
Writer, Motivator and Success Trainer
1897-1989

 


Even if you are on the right track,
you will get run over if you just sit there
.

Will Rogers
Cherokee-American Cowboy, Comedian, Humorist, Social Commentator and Actor

1879 - 1935



You can blame people who knock things over in the dark,
or you can begin to light candles.
You're only at fault if you know about the problem
and choose to do nothing.


Paul Hawken


What we think, or what we know, or what we believe is, in the end, of little consequence.
The only thing of consequence
is what we do.


John Ruskin

ADMIRATION

There is an innocence in admiration;
it is found in those to whom it has not yet occurred
that they, too, might be admired some day.

ADVERSITY
  
When it's cloudy and stormy outside
remember that
the sun is still shining above it all.
When we rise up through the storm
there will always be a light to show us the way.
 
Jace Carlton

  

Do not fear the winds of adversity.
Remember, a kite rises against the wind rather than with it

If we had not winter, the spring would not be so pleasant;
if we did not sometimes taste of adversity,
prosperity would not be so welcome

1612 - 1672

AIM HIGH!

In the long run men hit only what they aim at.
Therefore, though they should fail immediately,
they had better aim at something high.


Henry David Thoreau



One of the saddest lines in the world is
"Oh, come now - be realistic."
The best parts of this world
were not fashioned by those who were realistic.
They were fashioned by those who dared to look hard at their wishes
and gave them horses to ride.


Richard Nelson Bolles


Far away in the sunshine are my highest aspirations.
I may not reach them,
but I can look up and see their beauty,
believe in them,
and try to follow where they lead.


Louisa May Alcott

BE TRULY ALIVE!
  
Seek out that particular mental attitude
which makes you feel most deeply and vitally alive,
along with which comes the inner voice which says,
"This is the real me."


William James

1842 - 1910



We can only be said to be alive in those moments
when our hearts are conscious of our treasures.


Thornton Wilder

We are each other's angels.
We meet when it is right.

You will forget the kind words you said today,
but the recipient may cherish them over a lifetime

At times our own light goes out
and it is rekindled by a spark from another person.
Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude
of those who have lighted the flame within us

ATTITUDE
  
Ability is what you're capable of doing.
Motivation determines what you do.
Attitude determines how well you do it.


Lou Holtz
Legendary College Football Coach

  


Every pessimist who ever lived has been buried in an unmarked grave.
Tomorrow has always been better than today, and it always will be.


Paul Harvey
World Famous and Award Winning
American Radio Broadcaster, Author and Keynote Speaker
b. September 4, 1918

  


There is little difference in people,
but that little difference makes a big difference.
That little difference is attitude.
The big difference is whether it is positive or negative.


W. Clement Stone
American Businessman, Author and Philanthropist
1902 - 2002


Go ahead!
Have a bad attitude!
Revel in it!
Jump right into it with everything you've got!
Really, REALLY enjoy the experience of having a BAD attitude!
See if anybody cares!
And if somebody comes up to you and comments on your bad attitude ...
SHARE IT WITH THEM!

The same goes for a positive attitude.

In the end, it all depends on the RESULTS you want.


Jace Carlton


"We who lived in concentration camps
can remember the men who walked through the huts
comforting others, giving away their last piece of bread.
They may have been few in number,
but they offer sufficient proof
that everything can be taken from a man but one thing:
the last of the human freedoms—
to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances,
to choose one’s own way."


Viktor Frankl



Our lives are not determined by what happens to us,
but by how we react to what happens.
A positive attitude is a catalyst ...
a spark that creates extraordinary results.

Anonymous


I've never lost.
I've just been a little behind
when time ran out.

Vince Lombardi


A positive attitude is a powerful force for good,
giving life to everything it touches.

Anonymous


The greatest discovery a person can make
is that it is possible to alter one's life
by altering one's attitude.
