Joshua Waitzkin "The moment we believe that success is determined by an ingrained level of ability as opposed to resilience and hard work, we will be brittle in the face of adversity." Og Mandino "Failure will never overtake me if my determination to succeed is strong enough." Mary Kay Ash "Don't limit yourself. Many people limit themselves to what they think they can do. You can go as far as your mind lets you. What you believe, remember, you can achieve." Albert Einstein "You have to learn the rules of the game. And then you have to play better than anyone else." Steve Jobs "Sometimes when you innovate, you make mistakes. It is best to admit them quickly, and get on with improving your other innovations." |
