Explore, Dream, Discover

Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve. Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value.Two roads diverged in a wood, and I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference.
 The common question that gets asked in business is, ‘why?’ That’s a good question, but an equally valid question is, ‘why not?Definiteness of purpose is the starting point of all achievement. Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans.  We become what we think about. 

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do, so throw off the bowlines, sail away from safe harbor, catch the trade winds in your sails.  Explore, Dream, Discover.Life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. If you do what you’ve always done, you’ll get what you’ve always gotten.  The mind is everything. What you think you become.  The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now. An unexamined life is not worth living. 

Eighty percent of success is showing up. Don’t wait. The time will never be just right. Winning isn’t everything, but wanting to win is.  I am not a product of my circumstances. I am a product of my decisions. Every child is an artist.  

The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up.  You can never cross the ocean until you have the courage to lose sight of the shore. I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.  Either you run the day, or the day runs you. Whether you think you can or you think you can’t, you’re right. 
 The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why. Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it.  Boldness has genius, power and magic in it. The best revenge is massive success. People often say that motivation doesn’t last. Well, neither does bathing.  That’s why we recommend it daily. Inspiration exists, but it must find you working. 

If you hear a voice within you say “you cannot paint,” then by all means paint and that voice will be silenced.There is only one way to avoid criticism: do nothing, say nothing, and be nothing. Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off the goal. The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be.  Go confidently in the direction of your dreams.  Live the life you have imagined. 
When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left and could say, I used everything you gave me. Successful people are always looking for opportunities to help others.  Unsuccessful people are always asking, “What’s in it for me?” 

Certain things catch your eye, but pursue only those that capture the heart.  Believe you can and you’re halfway there. Everything you’ve ever wanted is on the other side of fear. We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light. Once you choose hope, anything’s possible. Start where you are. Use what you have.  Do what you can. 
When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life.  When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up.  I wrote down ‘happy’.  They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life. Fall seven times and stand up eight.  

When one door of happiness closes, another opens, but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us.  Everything has beauty, but not everyone can see. How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world. When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be.
