Alexander Graham Bell "When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us." Kenneth Goldsmith "If you work on something a little bit every day, you end up with something that is massive." Benjamin Hardy "Unsuccessful people make their decisions based on their current situations. Successful people make their decisions based on where they want to be." Stephen Covey "I am not a product of my circumstances. I am a product of my decisions." Earl Nightingale "Never give up on a dream just because of the time it will take to accomplish it. The time will pass anyway." |
