If I change what I THINK, I'll change what I BELIEVE.
If I change what I BELIEVE, then I'll change my EXPECTATIONS.
If I change my EXPECTATIONS, then I'll change my ATTITUDE.
If I change my ATTITUDE, then I'll change my PERFORMANCE.
If I change my PERFORMANCE, then I will have changed my LIFE.

PERSISTENCE
 
"Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence.  Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.  Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.  Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts.  Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent."
 
-----Calvin Coolidge

All glory comes from daring to begin.

Start by doing what's necessary,
then do what's possible,
and suddenly you are doing the impossible.

Courage doesn't always roar.
Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end
of the day saying,
I will try again tomorrow.
