"Success is largely a matter of holding on after others have let go."

... Aristotle, philosopher

GREAT Thoughts...
Morale is when your hands and feet keep on working when your head says it can't be done. One of the greatest pleasures in life is doing what people say you can't. The trouble with most of us in trying times is that we quit trying. It takes courage to stand up and speak as well as to sit down and listen.
===========================================
Give with love
Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.
===========================================
"The difference between the impossible and the possible lies in a man's determination."
...Tommy Lasorda
===========================================
If you cannot be satisfied with what you have,
you must learn to be satisfied with what you haven't.
===========================================
First a person should put his house together,
then his town, then the world.
...Rabbi Israel Salanter
===========================================
"You might well remember that nothing can bring you success but yourself." Napoleon Hill
===========================================
"Life's real failure is when you do not realize how close you were to success when you gave up."
===========================================
"The will to win, the desire to succeed,
the urge to reach your fullpotential...
these are the keys that will unlock
the door to personal excellence."
... Eddie Robinson
===========================================
Add Fitness to your Daily Routine.
If you find you can't devote enough time to getting in shape as you would like, there are still plenty of ways you can keep your body active while going about your normal routine. Try to use stairways instead of elevators whenever possible.If you can walk there or take a bike, let your body burn energy instead of taking your car.If you are driving, instead of wasting time looking for a good spot, park further away and walk a couple extra blocks.Turn your housework into a fitness challenge: Sweep and mop using as much energy as possible, exaggerating your arm movements. Fold your clothes and do a couple sets of squats at the same time. Whatever you're doing try and incorporate in some sort of routine that gets your muscles working and heart rate moving.And if you absolutely can't miss your favorite show on TV, try doing some sit-ups and push-ups while you watch or during commercials.
===========================================
THE ORIGIN OF TRUE WEALTH
“That gain cannot be made without some other person's loss” is an antiquated belief still held by many; if this were true, then one would need to point out those that lost WHILE we became surrounded by wealth, wealth that the world increases by the minute. We mostly create wealth, not filch it from others, as some tend to believe.
===========================================

Inspirational Thoughts...

It is not the critic who counts. Not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled or where the doer of deeds could have done better.
The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena,whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause.
Who, at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.
...Theodore Roosevelt 1858-1919, Twenty-sixth President of the USA
===========================================
Nobody stands taller than those willing to stand corrected.
...William Safire, Columnist
===========================================
Unnecessary stress
In a relationship you need two things: trust and communication. If you have neither, then you don't have a relationship. You have a project that just creates unnecessary stress.
===========================================
Learning from failure
You've failed many times, although you don't remember. You fell down the first time you tried to walk. You almost drowned the first time you tried to swim. . . . Don't worry about failure. . . . Worry about the chances you miss when you don't even try.-- Sherman Finesilver, US District Court Judge
===========================================
Muscle building golden rules
When lifting weights always select the right amount of weight, typically you should be able to handle the load for ten to twelve repetitions. Working your muscles that many times build them, lifting something heavy a few times just makes it tired. As a rule if you are not able to lift a weight at least six times is too heavy, if you lift it more than twelve times increase the weight or you are not progressing. Always take 1 minute breaks in between sets. Start with 1 or two sets of the same exercise and grow from there, remember never exercise the same muscles in subsequent days.

"Striving for success without hard work is like trying to harvest where you haven't planted." David Bly
