Nothing worthwhile comes easily…Work, continuous work and hard work, is the only way to accomplish results that last.
In the practice of the Way, every day something is dropped. Less and less do you need to force things until finally you arrive at non-action. When nothing is done, nothing is left undone.

Yusuf Tara
Some people are so paralyzed by fear that they never do anything. They just collect and hoard information without ever acting on it. I keep trying to encourage people not to give up. You get good at something by doing it, over and over, until it becomes second in nature.

Vince Lombarde
All of us have bad luck and good luck. The man who persists through the bad luck – who keeps right on going – is the man who is there when the good luck comes – and is ready to receive it.
Robert Collier
When things seems bad, look to see if you’re not focusing the wrong direction. When you’re looking at the sun, you see no shadows. When the outlook isn’t good, try the up looks – it’s always good.

You have to find something that you love enough to be able to take risks, jump over the hurdles and break through the brick walls that are always going to be placed in front of you. If you don’t have that kind of feeling for what it is you are doing, you’ll stop at the first giant hurdle.
