Aristotle "First, have a definite, clear practical ideal; a goal, an objective. Second, have the necessary means to achieve your ends; wisdom, money, materials, and methods. Third, adjust all your means to that end." Henry David Thoreau "Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined." Aristotle "There is only one way to avoid criticism: do nothing, say nothing, and be nothing." Johann Wolfgang von Goethe "Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it." Jim Rohn "Either you run the day, or the day runs you." |
