“‘Now’ is the operative word. Everything you put in your way is just a method of putting off the hour when you could actually be doing your dream. You don’t need endless time and perfect conditions. Do it now. Do it today. Do it for twenty minutes and watch your heart start beating.”
~Barbara Sher~
“The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing.”
~Albert Einstein~
“Some of us need to discover that we will not begin to live more fully until we have the courage to do and see and taste and experience much less than usual … And for a man who has let himself be drawn completely out of himself by his activity, nothing is more difficult than to sit still and rest, doing nothing at all. The very act of resting is the hardest and most courageous act he can perform.”
~Thomas Merton~
“Do not wait; the time will never be just right. Start where you stand, and work with whatever tools you may have at your command, and better tools will be found as you go along.”
~Napoleon Hill~
“If you want to know your past – look into your present conditions. If you want to know your future – look into your present actions.”
~Chinese Proverb~
“Listen to your I AM’s. You are your I AM’s – the ones you feel in your gut. And the moment that you say, “I refuse to listen to my limitations any more; I refuse to be this or that; I am happier; I am healthier; I am more open; I am more trusting,” you start becoming that way.”
~Thomas D. Willhite~
“Everyone who has ever taken a shower has had an idea. It’s the person who gets out of the shower, dries off, and does something about it that makes a difference.”
~Nolan Bushnell~
“No one controls your mind but you…no one can prevent you from formulating your definite main goal…no one can halt your planning for the accomplishment of that goal..no one can stop you from becoming enthusiastic about those plans.”
~Thomas D. Willhite~
“It is impossible to win the race unless you venture to run, impossible to win the victory unless you dare to battle.”
~Richard M. DeVos~
“I knew from feelings that I had to do something. And I did it. And I did it well. I did what made me feel better tomorrow even though it was very, very painful at the time. The result was beneficial. Doing those things today that feel good tomorrow.”
~Thomas D. Willhite~
“I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark would burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.”
~Jack London~
