Life’s like a boom-a-rang. The more good you throw out, the more you receive in return. - Josh S.

Desire is the key to motivation, but it's determination and commitment to an unrelenting pursuit of your goal - a commitment to excellence - that will enable you to attain the success you seek. - Mario Andretti Productivity is never an accident. It is always the result of a commitment to excellence, intelligent planning, and focused effort.

The main reason that most people do not achieve their goals is not because they can't or they are not smart, good or deserving enough.

Take time to plan properly and then create a process for taking daily action towards your goals. - John Assaraf The future holds limitless possibilities...you decide what the future holds for you.

If you are not making the progress that you would like to make and are capable of making, it is simply because your goals are not clearly defined. Productivity is never an accident.

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.  - Thomas Edison Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength. Most people never run far enough on their first wind to find out if they've got a second. Give your dreams all you've got and you'll be amazed at the energy that comes out of you. It always seems impossible until it is done. How long should you try? Until you succeed! Greatness is the ability to accomplish things even when others say you cannot!

Life is like a combination lock; your job is to find the right numbers, in the right order, so you can have anything you want. - Brian Tracy

Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is to not stop questioning. -  Albert Einstein Someone once said, There comes a time in your life when you walk away from all the drama and the people who create it. You surround yourself with people who make you laugh. Forget the bad, and focus on the good. Love the people who treat you right, pray for the ones who don't. Life is too short to be anything but happy. Falling down is a part of life, getting back up is living. Learn from the past, live in the now. Being alive is a gift, being happy is by choice! Life is what you make it. Choose to make it great!
