A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

Accept responsibility for your life. Know that it is you who will get you where you want to go, no one else.

All of our dreams can come true if we just have the courage to pursue them.

Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.

Build your own dreams, or someone else will hire you to build theirs.

Challenges are what make life interesting and overcoming them is what makes life meaningful.

Change is inevitable. Progress is optional.

Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive and go do it. Because what the world needs is more people who have come alive

Don’t judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds you plant.

Everything you want is out there waiting for you to ask. Everything you want also wants you. But you have to take action to get it.
