What are you waiting for?

"Wounded people are dangerous; they know they can survive." Goals must never be from your ego, but problems that cry for a solution. - Robert H. Schuller Have you ever watched a stonecutter at work? He will hammer away at a rock for perhaps a 100 times without a crack showing in it. Then, on the 101st blow, it will split in two. It is not that blow alone which accomplished the result, but the 100 others that went before as well. - Source Unknown Let me tell you the secret that has led me to my goal, My strength lies solely in my tenacity. - Louis Pasteur I believe that life is a journey, often difficult and sometimes incredibly cruel, but we are well equipped for it if only we tap into our talents and gifts and allow them to blossom. - Les Brown Do not confuse motion and progress. A rocking horse keeps moving, but does not make any progress. - Alfred A. Montapert "I have had dreams, and I have had nightmares. I overcame the nightmares because of my dreams." - Dr. Jonas Salk "When you are making a success of something, it's not work. It's a way of life. You enjoy yourself because you are making your contribution to the world." - Andrew Granatelli You will either step forward into growth or you will step back into safety. ~ Abraham Maslow "Commitment challenges you to set a goal and then to support it with a promise. You must promise to achieve and never entertain the thoughts of making excuses or shunning responsibility." - Gary Ryan Blair Your most valuable asset can be your willingness to persist longer than anyone else. - Brian Tracy You will never find time for anything. You must make it. - Charles Buxton "The greatest pleasure in life is doing what others say cannot be done." - Randy Foutch Five frogs are sitting on a log. Four decide to jump off. How many are left? Answer: five. Why? Because there's a difference between deciding and doing. - Mark L. Feldman & Michael F. Spratt There is no such thing as staying the same. You must always push to better yourself, because the alternative is simply unacceptable. ~ Sues The critical ingredient is getting off your butt and doing something. It's as simple as that. A lot of people have ideas, but there are few who decide to do something about them now. Not tomorrow. Not next week. But today. The true entrepreneur is a doer, not a dreamer. - Robert Browning You may not be responsible for getting knocked down, but you're certainly responsible for getting back up. - Wally Amos Don't spend your precious time asking "Why isn't the world a better place?" It will only be time wasted. The question to ask is "How can I make it better?" To that there is an answer. - Leo Buscaglia "Approach each new problem not with a view of finding what you hope will be there, but to get the truth, the realities that must be grappled with. You may not like what you find. In that case you are entitled to try to change it. But do not deceive yourself as to what you do find to be the facts of the situation." - Bernard M. Baruch Persistence is holding on and pushing forward when there is nothing left in you but the sheer will and determination to continue. ~Sues "A determined person doesn't find it hard to succeed; they find it hard to stop trying." - Allen Steble You can adopt the attitude there is nothing you can do, or you can see the challenge as your call to action. - Catherine Pulsifer To succeed, you need to take that gut feeling in what you believe and act on it with all of your heart. - Christy Borgeld Always demanding the best of oneself, living with honor, devoting one's talents and gifts to the benefits of others - these are the measures of success that endure when material things have passed away. ~ Henry Ford The right way is not always the popular and easy way. Standing for right when it is unpopular is a true test of moral character. - Margaret Chase Smith There is a difference between interest and commitment. When you're interested in something, you do it only when it's convenient. When you're committed to something, you accept no excuses, only results. ~ Ken Blanchard It takes great goals to lead us out of our everyday limits into accomplishing more than we ever thought we could or would. ~ Robert Cooper If you are bored with life, if you don't get up every morning with a burning desire to do things--you don't have enough goals. ~ Lou Holtz You see things and you say 'Why?' But I dream things that never were and I say 'Why not?' ~ George Bernard Shaw ...perhaps the most distinguishing trait of visionary leaders is that they believe in a goal that benefits not only themselves, but others as well. It is such vision that attracts the psychic energy of other people, and makes them willing to work beyond the call of duty for the organization. ~ Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi Most people never run far enough on their first wind to find out they've got a second. Give your dreams all you've got and you'll be amazed at the energy that comes out of you. ~ William James Accomplishment of purpose is better than making a profit. ~ Nigerien Proverb Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. - Ralph Waldo Emerson We have an obligation to protect the innocent. We must stand between those who need our protection and those who would do them harm. ~ Sues I swore never to be silent whenever human beings endure suffering and humiliation. We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. - Elie Wiesel It's easy to make a buck. It's a lot tougher to make a difference. -Tom Brokaw Do not pray for an easy life, pray for the strength to endure a difficult one. ~ Bruce Lee "The question should be, is it worth trying to do, not can it be done." - Allard Lowenstein "One determined person can make a significant difference; a small group of determined people can change the course of history." ~ Sonia Johnson A 'No' uttered from deepest conviction is better and greater than a 'Yes' merely uttered to please, or what is worse, to avoid trouble. ~ Mahatma Gandhi “The self-confidence of the warrior is not the self-confidence of the average man. The average man seeks certainty in the eyes of the onlooker and calls that self-confidence. The warrior seeks impeccability in his own eyes and calls that humbleness. The average man is hooked to his fellow men, while the warrior is hooked only to infinity.” -Carlos Castaneda "Ordinary people, even weak people, can do extraordinary things through temporary courage generated by a situation. But the person of character does not need the situation to generate his courage. It is a part of his being and a standard approach to all life's challenges." ~ Michael S. Josephson "So long as I am acting from duty and conviction, I am indifferent to taunts and jeers. I think they will probably do me more good than harm." ~ Winston Churchill
