Zig Ziglar "It was character that got us out of bed, commitment that moved us into action, and discipline that enabled us to follow through." Jim Rohn "Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment." Stephen King "Talent is cheaper than table salt. What separates the talented individual from the successful one is a lot of hard work." David Brinkley "A successful man is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks others have thrown at him." Vince Lombardi "Individual commitment to a group effort - that is what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, a civilization work." |
