If I were asked to give what I consider the single most useful bit of advice for all humanity it would be this:Expect trouble as an inevitable part of life and when it comes, hold your head high, look it squerely in the eye, and say, ‘I will be bigger than you. You cannot defeat me.’
–Ann Landres

The road to success is not straight
There is a curve called failure A loop called confusion Speed bumps called friends Red lights called enemies Caution lights called family you’ll have flats called jobs But if you have determination An engine called perseverance Insurance called faith A driver called GOD You’ll make it to a place called SUCCESS!

All successful men and women are big dreamers. They imagine what their future could be, ideal in every respect, and then they work every day toward their distant vision, that goal or purpose.

I don’t think I need to add any justification for it, except to recommend Brian Tracy’s book, Goals. I bought an audio version of it and now I’m actually doing some of the action steps from it — I see a difference already. Plus, I subscribe to his Personal Success newsletter, which I think is very good.
Perhaps you’ve noticed, I’ve updated the Random Quote item by adding new quotes — most of them, to be exact. I’ve also included the author of the quote below it, as I think it’s important to know who said it. As I’m going to add new quotes to it, I’ll try to add the date if it’s known and add it as well.
I enjoy reading. I enjoy learning. I enjoy learning from the present and past leaders. A short quote sometimes teaches you more than a whole lecture, or even a book. That’s why I like them. I learn from them.
If you have a nice quote, post it below and I might include it in the Random Quote. If you haven’t read my short bio, my own quote (or motto) is: live (smart), learn (continuously), and enjoy (have fun). How about that? I’ve just composed it, by the way, my original was: live, learn and have fun. That’s the theme of this main blog (at least that’s my goal); the other blogs that I have are on software-engineering (my career), and on investing (that’s where my money goes).
