Only as we mature does affection begin to depend on achievement.
Whenever you want to achieve something, keep your eyes open, concentrate and make sure you know exactly what it is you want. No one can hit their target with their eyes closed.
When your desires are strong enough you will appear to possess superhuman powers to achieve.
When we do not know a person – and also when we do – we have to judge his size by the size and nature of his achievements, as compared with the achievements of others in his special line of business – there is no other way.
To achieve anything you must first have ambition and then talent, knowledge, and finally the opportunity.
The starting point of all achievement is DESIRE. Keep this constantly in mind. Weak desires bring weak results, just as a small amount of fire makes a small amount of heat.
Strong, deeply rooted desire is the starting point of all achievement.
One sound idea is all that one needs to achieve success.
No man ever achieved worth-while success who did not, at one time or other, find himself with at least one foot hanging well over the brink of failure.
No great achievement is possible without persistent work.
Never doubt that you are valuable and powerful and deserving of every chance and opportunity in the world to pursue and achieve your own dreams.
Great achievement is usually born of great sacrifice, and is never the result of selfishness.
