Great achievement is usually born of great sacrifice, and is never the result of selfishness.
Everyone can rise above their circumstances and achieve success if they are dedicated to and passionate about what they do.
Definiteness of purpose is the starting point of all achievement.
Cherish your visions and your dreams as they are the children of your soul; the blue-prints of your ultimate achievements.
Being busy does not always mean real work. The object of all work is production or accomplishment and to either of these ends there must be forethought, system, planning, intelligence and honest purpose, as well as perspiration.
As for accomplishments, I just did what I had to do as things came along.
And there is the fallacy of existence: the idea that one would be happy forever and aye with a given situation or series of accomplishments.
All historical experience confirms the truth – that man would not have attained the possible unless time and again he had reached out for the impossible.[Alle geschichtliche Erfahrung bestätigt es, daß man das Mögliche nicht erreichte, wenn nicht immer wieder in der Welt nach dem Unmöglichen gegriffen worden wäre.]
ALL ACHIEVEMENT, ALL EARNED RICHES, HAVE THEIR BEGINNING IN AN IDEA!
