"If I had to select one quality, one personal characteristic that I regard as being most highly correlated with success, whatever the field, I would pick the trait of persistence."

The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of will.

If you want to make an easy job seem mighty hard, just keep putting off doing it.  ~Olin Miller

Here’s the top ten quotes of ‘The Greatest’ :
10. Age is whatever you think it is. You are as old as you

think you are.

9. At home I am a nice guy: but I don’t want the world to

know. Humble people, I’ve found, don’t get very far.

8. He who is not courageous enough to take risks will

accomplish nothing in life.
7. I never thought of losing, but now that it’ s happened,

the only thing is to do it right. That’s my obligation to

all the people who believe in me. We all have to take

defeats in life.
6. I’m so fast that last night I turned off the light switch

in my hotel room and was in bed before the room was dark.

5. What keeps me going is goals.
4. It’s the repetition of affirmations that leads to belief.

And once that belief becomes a deep conviction, things

begin to happen.

3. I am the greatest, I said that even before I knew I was.
2. I hated every minute of training, but I said, "Don’t quit.

Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion."

If you’re going to make the incredible effort to be born, then why not live your life to the MAX. It makes sense, doesn’t it? Why do it half shod? Why only let the throttle out half way? Put your foot flat to the floor, spin the wheels, burn some rubber and let loose with a ‘Yahoo’ as you tear up the road in your supercharged hot rod of a life that is yours to live. Too many of us try to play it safe and at the end of the road we find ourselves trapped in self-imposed security. But you know and I know that there’s only one life to live, so let’s LIVE it.

I recently went to see a motivational speaker who

had been through hell and back in her earlier years

- it made for a very interesting evening! I came up

with the following cartoon after hearing of the

obstacles she had overcome…..

I recommend you go and see good motivational speakers when

you can – you will come away inspired. and it’ll be a great help

when you have obstacles in your way.
