Credibility

Your reputation and integrity are everything. Follow through on what you say you're going to do. Your credibility can only be built over time, and it is built from the history of your words and actions. - Maria Razumich-Zec

Enthusiasm

Enthusiasm is one of the most powerful engines of success. When you do a thing, do it with all your might. Put your whole soul into it. Stamp it with your own personality. Be active, be energetic and faithful, and you will accomplish your objective. Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm. - Ralph Waldo Emerson

Attitude

Attitude, to me, is more important than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do.  It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill.  It will make or break a company… a church… a home.  The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we embrace for that day.  We cannot change our past… we cannot change the fact that people act in a certain way.  We cannot change the inevitable.  The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude… I am convinced that life is 10 percent what happens to me and 90 percent how I react to it.  And so it is with you… We are in charge of our attitudes. - Charles Swindoll Positive thoughts can energize your day and the perfect way to start each morning!  Our attitude is the environment we carry with us during the day.  It proclaims to the ...

Make it a habit

Good habits are as addictive as bad habits, and a lot more rewarding. - Harvey Mackay  It is inevitable that we must change our habits if we intend to get different results.

Dream, do, succeed

To dream anything that you want to dream. That's the beauty of the human mind. To do anything that you want to do. That is the strength of the human will. To trust yourself to test your limits. That is the courage to succeed. - Bernard Edmonds

Face fear

You can conquer almost any fear if you will only make up your mind to do so. For remember, fear doesn't exist anywhere except in the mind. -  Dale Carnegie Each time we face our fear, we gain strength, courage, and confidence in the doing.

Proper perspective

The reality of life is that your perceptions - right or wrong -  influence everything else you do.  When you get a proper  perspective of your perceptions, you may be surprised how  many other things fall into place.- Roger Birkman

What you think

You may believe that you are responsible for what you do,but not for what you think. The truth is that you are responsible for what you think, because it is only at this level that you can exercise choice. What you do comes from what you think.— Quote from A Course in Miracles

Mental picture

Formulate and stamp indelibly on your mind a mental picture of yourself as succeeding. Hold this picture tenaciously. Never permit it to fade. Your mind will seek to develop the picture... Do not build up obstacles in your imagination. - Norman Vincent Peale If you realized how powerful your thoughts are,you would never think a negative thought. Make the right choices. Start today. Make today great!

Start

Start by doing what's necessary; then do what's possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible. - St. Francis of Assisi 

Deliver more

Deliver more than You are getting paid to do. The victory of success will be half won when You learn the secret of putting out more than is expected in all that You do. Make Your self so valuable in Your work that eventually You will become indispensable. Exercise Your privilege to go the extra mile, and enjoy all the rewards you receive. - Og Mandino

Memorial Day

For all who have served and to those who are serving...we show great appreciation.  And to those who have died, we also show remembrance.  Men and women giving their best to defend what they love.  They defend our country, they fight and sacrifice so that we may know freedom.  Unknown and faceless to everyone except those who knew them personally or served with them.  Some call them soldiers, others call them heroes.  Because of them, we continue to live in freedom. For this we give our thanks!

Be inspired

The experienced mountain climber is not intimidated by a mountain -- he is inspired by it. The persistent winner is not discouraged by a problem -- he is challenged by it. Mountains are created to be conquered; adversities are designed to be defeated; problems are sent to be solved. It is better to master one mountain than a thousand foothills. - William Arthur Ward

Something will master

Something will master and something will serve. Either you run the day or the day runs you. -  Jim Rohn Take control of your thoughts. Take control of your attitudes. Take control of your responses. Take control of your actions. Take control of your desired outcome.

Keep reloading

Perseverance

Life is not easy for any of us. But what of that? We must have perseverance and above all confidence in ourselves. We must believe that we are gifted for something, and that this thing, at whatever cost, must be attained. - Marie Curie

If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader. — John Quincy Adams We're all leaders... If you influence anyone's beliefs, thinking, behavior, or development, then you are engaging in leadership.

Don't give up

Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up. - 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.

Have confidence

A good leader inspires people to have confidence in the leader; a great leader inspires people to have confidence in themselves. - Eleanor Roosevelt

Be Happy

Happy and unhappy people tend to have very similar life experiences. The difference is what they focus on. It's your choice.

What can be

We can't afford to waste tears on might-have -beens. We need to turn the tears into sweat that can take us to what can be. — Denis Waitley

No limits

There are no limits...only beliefs about what is possible! Optimism is a strategy for making a better future. Unless you believe that the future can be better, you are unlikely to step up and take responsibility for making it so. - Norm Chomsky

Our attitude

In one minute you can change your attitude and in that minute you can change your entire day.  - Spencer Johnson Our attitude is the environment we carry with us during the day.

Bring to life

Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you as by the attitude you bring to life; not so much by what happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens. -  Kahlil Gibran

Meaning of life

Each man must look to himself to teach him the meaning of life. It is not something discovered; it is something molded. - Antoine de Saint-Exupery  A good life is when you assume nothing, do more, need less, smile often, dream big, understand the gift of laughter and laugh a lot, believe in yourself, and realize how blessed you are. When you go to bed with a dream and wake up with a purpose. Being with people who know your worth and who appreciate you for who you are. 

You only live once

You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough. ~Joe Lewis  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. Being alive is a gift, being happy is by choice! 

But not you

Let others lead small lives, but not you. Let others argue over small things, but not you. Let others cry over small hurts, but not you. Let others leave their future in someone else's hands, but not you. - Jim Rohn

Gratitude

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity.

Most beginnings are small, and appear trivial and insignificant, but in reality they are the most important things in life. -  James Allen

What you haven't done

You'll seldom experience regret for anything that you've done. It is what you haven't done that will torment you. The message, therefore, is clear. Do it! Develop an appreciation for the present moment. Seize every second of your life and savor it. Value your present moments. Using them up in any self-defeating ways means you've lost them forever. - Wayne Dyer

Your choice

Be miserable. Or motivate yourself. Whatever has to be done, it's always your choice. - Wayne Dyer
